    Salva ran into many obstacles; pain- emotional and physical. However, his biggest obstacle was losing his friends and family. At the beginning of Salva’s story, Salva’s emotions were so wired by the worry for his family that he could not understand a soldier’s motions and mistook them to be the signal for death. This shows how difficult losing family was to Salva and how it affected his life. Shortly after this situation, Salva underwent the death of his friend Marial. The author describes this like so, “Salva shook with terror inside and out. He clung to Uncle like a baby or a little boy, hanging on to his hand or shirttail when he could, never letting Uncle get farther than an arm’s length away. He looked around constantly: every movement in the go: every movement in the grass was a lion stalking, every stillness a lion waiting to spring,’’ (pg.40). This excerpt shows Salva’s fear caused by losing his only friend on the journey. His fear was so great, that Uncle had to practically drag him forward. This also shows Sava’s dependence on his family and friends and the impact their loss had on him. Linda Sue Park describes this mutualism well to the point, “If it hadn’t been for Uncle, Salva might have gone crazy with fear,” (pg.…

    The narrator feels like her parents expressed that everything she did was not “good enough” according to their expectations, which led to her suicide. She even goes so far as to say, “If only I were a son, shoulders broad as the sunset threading through the pine,”(Mirikitani 10). She feels her gender causes her to be sub-par to her parents’ standards. Since she is a female, she lacks the important feeling of self worth. She repeatedly expresses her previous statement, “ I apologize for disappointing you” (Mirikitani 5). As hard as she works, the results of her efforts are not adequate to earn the approval of her family. Although she states “I’ve worked very hard, harder, perhaps to please you”, she knows that no matter the great effort she puts into a project, it will be insufficient (Mirikitani 7). Her mindset leads her to believe her life is not worth living.…
