A Response to Victoria's Essay...


I know it might be odd as to why I uploaded a photo of J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, but the reason I did is because she has a very interesting quote. She said, "It is our choices…that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." I think this quote is very relevant to Victoria's paper because in life we don't necessarily have the ability to control everything and everyone around us. Yet it is very important to make our own decisions even those based off of things that we can't control. While, you did not necessarily get accepted to your number one university, you made the decision to decide for yourself which University you would attend, even if it wasn't your parents' first choice. I think this paper was really successful in its message because it is impossible for anyone to not relate to its content. No one has the ability to control everything in their lives, yet the decisions we make dictate our happiness in life.
