"A Use of Force" Reaction

   Inside of planet earth live approximately 7.5 billion people. This might be not much if you think of it for the first time but when you study the whole living process more deeply, you're sure to be left astonished of how outstanding it is. With more than 7 billion people living on the same planet you might be thinking, "why do we struggle so much if there's enough people that can work together to achieve a better living environment?". The answer to this is simple, we chose this by our nature because we are driven by our instincts and they tell us to only look for people or to only socialize with people who relate to our way of thinking. If every human being living on earth worked together for the greater good the world might not be even called like that anymore. As a result, 7 billion people mean 7 billion different thoughts and actions so there's a big possibility of arguing. "A Force of Nature" shows the story of four individuals and how disagreement can lead to the topic of violence. 

   As having read the story I can say confidently that it's too short of some elements to define it as only one topic of theme. Since throughout the short story I had many different thoughts of what was really happening in it. At first I implied that it had something to do with the parents because of how they reacted and when they said that their daughter was in the kitchen table. Then I started suspecting that maybe the girl was somehow the one responsible for the whole situation because of how she seemed the one in control the whole time. All of these were not correct in my mind because I concluded that maybe this is the way the author wanted us to think, without use of quotation marks we are left with just having to wonder for ourselves what the situation really is about. At last, my predictions started to fade because at the end the story flowed for itself with a really good theme. 

   In conclusion, I think that this maybe was a case of violence. My main reason would be how the girl reacted when the doctor finally opted for using force against her will to check if she was suffering from diphtheria. Mathilda reacted with anger inside that was maybe stored there for a long time. Which might leave us thinking that she could've been living with it and that her parents were the ones responsible for it. In my opinion, I'm left thinking that the main suspects are the parents since they never really seem truthful while dealing with the situation. This one something I was not wrong when i inferred because it could've all been sorted out if they had a stable family circle with care. 

"Identity"

    Finally a chance where I can write non stop about myself since I don't do it too often. In general, I don't really spend that much time talking only about myself. With this opportunity I'll think that through this I won't have to worry about boring someone up with my business. For me, I think that no one really understands who they are until they've tried everything. Therefore, here I'll be generalizing what I believe is what I am. My identity is something I take really seriously because it's how I see myself and how others do too. People differ in identity no matter where they are from and it can be considered as an authentic gift that makes them special. 

    Now you may ask, "who are you?". I am Neythan Acosta Del Valle, I am everything I fight and intend to be. To be more specific, I am 18 years old, I'm currently attending my freshman year of college at "Universidad de Puerto Rico Recinto de Rio Piedras" while majoring in Environmental Science. I'm the middle child of three siblings, I live in Bayamón and basically, I love to be around people. Love to be with friends that think the same way as I do. Go out, have fun and enjoy life are my main hobbies. Enough with that though, let's talk about what I believe the true definition of identity is. In my opinion, it's what you have to find first about yourself so you can be able to establish yourself as a force in this world. Identity is what differs you from close people but at the same time brings you together. For example, as a Puerto Rican it's probably safe to say that most of my likings will be similar from the ones of a fellow citizen. Yes, we will like mofongo and we will have the same traditions but at the same time him and myself will be completely two different souls. I think this is a beautiful way to bring people together, through identity, because you have a great opportunity to learn things that yourself would never be able to go through before. Also, we are opposites but that's the main reason we become so close. 

    It is safe to say, after giving my point of view of this topic, that I believe identity is something essential for every human being. Not matter who we might me or what we believe in, identity is the reason we can become able to live freely and connect with others. In general, I think that it is hard to find yourself in this wide world but I can assure that when you do everything will just fall in it's place. After all we will reach our main aspiration through this, to be happy.
