Thomas In The Maze Runner

Besides a great deal of running everyday and continuous whining aside, Thomas from The Maze Runner by James Dashner and I share many more traits and parallels. From our bravery, to loyalty and hard work, Thomas is a literary character that is most like me. For starters, The Maze Runner by James Dashner is a wonderful novel about a bunch of teenage boys stuck in a giant maze that closes and rearranges itself at night, and occasionally one finds gigantic metal creatures with spikes that like to kill little boys. Thomas is brought to this maze in an iron box and instantly begins to adapt to the situation and grow courage. This summer, I was forced to go to a peculiar summer camp in the middle of nowhere, but found myself accepting the situation and attempting to move forward like Thomas. I believe I am personally made with the same adaptation skills. I made an effort to smile and make friends, with some courage. Within the first day, Thomas grows adapted to his environment, doing things other people would never have thought of doing in the situation. He knows he is destined to lead as a maze
Whether we are saving people from being eaten by giant monsters, or standing up for them, we always have ours friends back. When I was around three or four, I got into an elevator with my grandmother. Another woman got in and made some type of mean remark to her. I stomped my tiny foot and yelled, “Don’t you dare speak to my Grandma like that!” Of course, I also stick by my friend’s side and never say anything rude about them behind their backs and speak up when someone is. Thomas, however, sees one of his friends passing out in the maze as the doors close and he runs in desperately to defend him from the monsters and help him with his wounds. I mentally care for my friends wounds, by giving them advice and truly caring about what they have to say at all times. Thomas reflects this through his dedication to his dying friend,
