The Three Golden Lines In Flowers For Algernon

Three golden lines resonated with me in Flowers For Algernon. Reading the story Flowers for Algernon i realized i saw myself in Charlie's innocents and his mined. First Golden line is “I want to be smart”(1) thies lines was something i would always said to myself. Growing up i always wanted to be smart i wanted to do good in school. I wanted make my parents proud because what parents don't want a smart child. I didn't know it but i realized it really till middle school that i was in special classes witch made me feel dumb but i still tried hard in school.Another golden line is “i don't think i pass the shok test” growing up i never wanted to fail a test and i would get mad at myself. I was every hard on myself when i did not do well on a
test and charlie seem so upset he didn't passed the shock test. I feel like when i took a test and didn't pass it i always feel like i couldn't have done better then what did. The last golden line is “i worked the dough-mixer and everyone was surprised”(34) i really felt this line because a lot of people didn't go graduate and lots of people didn't think that charlie would work the dough-mixer. When i was in high school i got pregnant my junior year of high school and it was hard but did Graduate. I also had the worst grades my first semester as a senior but when i graduated i had all A’s and B’s.In conclusion I feel like Charlie and me had gone thought the same thing but we worked to overcome it.
