El mundo

When we are little, we are like sponges. We soak in everything people say and ask a lot of questions about things we don’t know about. Even the littlest events, can impact what we do, act, or feel, in the future. For example, Millás talked about holding hands with his mother. Other guys remember doing the same thing, but never thought much about it. Millás, on the other hand, remembers these events in great detail and thinks about them when he is older. I don’t frequently think about holding my mom’s or dad’s hand, but I remember certain aspects of my childhood that have stayed with me. My sisters definitely influenced the person I am today, and I remember many times when we fought due to our differences or supported each other when we were upset and needed a shoulder to cry on. Each one of us is ‘broken’ at some point in our lives, and it’s great to have people or ones self motivation, to put the pieces together. Millás also talked about his mother’s breast feeding, and that definitely left an imprint on his mind for the rest of his life. Through Millás’ self motivation, he was able to achieve a lot of recognition for doing something he is good at – writing. He has broken pieces in his personality – his emotions and ideas, but he has been able to work through his problems to become a great writer.
