"The 60's" Pt 2 Reflection


       Years passed and special details about the main characters are revealed. We see how much they’ve came to their own selves and matured. Suffering sums up the feelings inside the family caused by fears and worrying about what others might say. This part really leaves a sense of wonder and calls for an act of self-reflection because of how easy it is to familiarize with the characters. Here we are mostly found with how everything is overcome and the relationship ties grow stronger.
         While faced with more society influenced human beings, the siblings made me come to think just how this time in life it really concretes and influences our ways and values. The most important story in this part is the one of the son that goes to the army. Just left me wondering about what would’ve been of him if he did get that scholarship and had become a football player. But instead it just strongly helps the fact that society really can break you down sometimes if you give it that power.

          As the stories come to an end so did my worries when thinking in place of the characters. I felt most identified with the son who followed truly what he believed in. Not letting others tell you who you are is what, for me, was all that he represented. This is what leaves us with hope because in my case it left me with a sense of wanting to overcome adversity. Then the family really grew and in values and views because they really left out any judgement and really worried about what keeps us human, love.

  3. This second part is more emotional than the first one, as the characters have to face the consequence of their decisions. I find that the strongest part of your analysis is when you said that "society really can break you down sometimes if you give it that power".
