Journal Chapter 2

My favorite quote in chapter 2 is the "Encouragement" in Augustus house which is"Good friends are hard to find and impossible to forget about". Encouragement is giving support to people that needs it. This Encouragement  means that its very hard to find a good friend because there are a lot of friends that will back stab you before you get to turn around, but a good friend is a person that will stand beside you to give you support. I can connect to this because i got all my friends is good friends that helped me get through bad times, and also my friends is very fun to hang around. I had the best-est good friend ever because he was so fun to hang around and he was loyal, he never told an lie he always been honest and truthful to me. I also liked the encouragement in chapter which is"home is where your heart is" this quote means your house is not always your home. Whatever place your heart feels good at ( Ex. family, friends). I can connect to this because even though my home well always feel good around my friends and family. They is people that you can be reliable to and honest to. I also can reflect to this because there are a lot of people who prefer to have their home around family and others prefer to have their home around friends. Both of this quotes or encouragements can be both connected to happiness in your life.

Journal Chapter 1

I like the quote in chapter one. This is when Augustus Waters said "you put the killing thing between your teeth, but you don't give it the power to do the killing". This line makes a lot of sense because, for example if you point gun at a person, you got the power to pull the trigger or don't pull the trigger". I can reflect to this because there are a lot of people in the world that would try to commit suicide because of certain reason. They got the power to kill their self or they let people help them in life. I also like the other quote in chapter one when Augustus said "I'm on a roller coaster that only goes up, my friend". This means he is an happy person that is probably very coincided. I can connect to this quote because I'm a person that is very excited about mostly everything, I got a lot of confidence in my self, and mostly every day I have a good day and when I have bad days it's rarely, I'm just that type of guy. I also have an over-coincided friend that wants to try everything in life, and I agree with him. Even though his dreams is wild and crazy, but that why it sound so fun. It's nothing bad about being coincided, sometimes they annoying, but most of the time they very fun to hang around. If you have a lot of confidence, try everything you want to try, don't let nobody pulled you down with a negative aura.
