Journal 4:Life Lesson- Aimee Mayaliwa

Reading this book, The House of the Scorpion, gives many life lessons. In life people go through alot of breakthroughs and struggles and speed bumps. Most people go to counseling for that, but many people do no know that there answers of life can be right under there nose, right in novels. In this book many different live lesson are taught. One of them being that everybody is unique. I hear many different stories about male and females being insecure about how they look or act, or even have issues of looking at themselves in the mirror. People in my generation are growing up to  technology and magazines and talented actors and actress that have unbelievable bodies and looks, but what people don't know, is that half of it is make-up or bot ox or surgery or just plain fake. Every single human being on this planet earth is unique. Whether if it comes to your colour of eyes or shape of lips, everybody has something unique about themselves. Having so many different races and cultures and mixes makes this world unique, going to a school with many different cultural background makes the school that i go to unique. Having a type of hair colour, or having a white grandfather makes me unique. Not everybody realizes how unique and special they are. Even though Matt and all the other clones are composed with the same DNA they are different, especially Matt, he is different and unique from the group because he gains artistic and musical skills that not all the other clones have. Let it be lesson, every single person has a unique thing in themselves that not everybody has that makes them unique.
