Something about Junior which happened in his high school and reservation are kind of little stories combined as a novel. And what Junior did and thought is the thing I learnt from him, someday everything will be just fine.
He has congenital deficiency. He got bunch of teasing and mocking. He was the only native American in his high school. He was nonperson in the school. He couldn't recognize who himself is. He lost his best friend's trust. He lived in the poorest hometown, and walked to the high everyday. He was alone. He was discouraged. He was thinking about give up. He just a normal person, but has much more than that on the shoulders.
But anyway, Mr. P tried a lot to save him. Doing suggestions, and giving him the biggest confidence. Mr. P put his hope on Junior. This is a thing. When someone really relies on you, you must keep going on the way whatever the difficulties out there in the future.
Finally, Junior lost his whole family. But he saved himself, and helped himself to achieve his aim.
So everything he was suffering are the past, those are not big deals anymore.
When we was facing a problem, the one which we thought too hard to break. We gotta drop the bad idea of give up.
Because no matter we win or lose, that's our stories. And someday, you will realize that everything you've been licked the dust is NOTHING. You even cannot remember when you forget those. All since time is going all the way, and we are not that easily to break by life.
I'm eighteen now, and I'm pretty sure I have much longer in the future life. So many difficulties and happness are just stand out there waiting for me to hug or kick.
I'll be there, someday. To see what and how.
I think that Mr.P is the most important person in Junior's life, without him Junior could not choose left reservation, one day he may give up like other Indian people did. Mr.P changed Junior's life then he got chance to prove himself.
