Today in class we read an article from the columnist packet by the title of Man of the Streets, in Three Suites. This story really spoke to me, it shows many sides of the world and our society today. One being that when we as people are caught doing something wrong, we go on the offensive and try to take the spotlight off of ourselves. Such as when the man was smoking in the wrong spot and Nathaniel corrected him. So the man started making fun of Nathaniel. Rather than retaliating, Nathaniel simply shrugged his shoulders and stood for what he believed was right.
Another point id like to make is that no matter who you are or what you have to overcome, you can do anything you want if you just set your mind to it and out forth the required effort to accomplish such task. Nathaniel had Schizophrenia yet was able to still play phenomenal music and impress a man (his tutor) who plays for the Los Angeles Philharmonic. As long as you set your mind to it you can accomplish anything you want to.
