"THERE WERE these things to do." pg.100

At this point of the book, I can compare myself quite well to Brian, he's is easily bothered with his emotions, I relate to that because I can get a bit touchy with my emotions. He's very ambicious to finish things through, he could have easily not even try to survive and just die, but he kept on going, kept on going. He remembered what his teacher had told him, feeling sorry for yourself will get you nowhere. He followed that belief and that helped him survive. I want to follow that saying as well, I have nothing to feel sorry for myself for so I shouldn't do anything to hurt my future. This book helped me reach an emotional state which made me cry. Great Book!!!! :'(
