Life is an amazing thing just like Jeannette Walls’ in The Glass Castle. Add a sentence about her hardships. People are awesome and we do many great things in life. Some of us go onto making and creating amazing inventions and other gadgets. Some of us go onto doing heroic things with our life. Well all have great and amazing moments but sometimes we have not so great or even tragic events. I 'm not going to say I 've had it the worst like Jeannette, but I 've definitely have a story to tell. I have little memory in my head and I mainly have stories that I have been told.

I asked him where she was going and he said “To work.. Hey I got something cool to show you”. I remember walked to the basement door where I was always terrified of. He opened the door turned on the lights and walked down the stairs. He walked over to his showcase of all his trophies and stuff he won from baseball and other small events.
