According to Abraham Lincoln, he stated "The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time." This means every single day takes patience what could help determine the future without everything rushing at time. I absolutely believe this is true since it applies to our everyday life. This can be clearly seen in the book: Among the Free by Margaret Petterson Haddix. In the book, time is an important factor that affects Luke, the protagonist. The time of breaking from Population Police, the time of hiding from being free, and the time to speak the truth out for the people. Everything contribute to time according to the author.

I am
I am Luke Garner.
I am scared of observing.
I wonder when the sergeant is coming.
I hear his footstep gets closer and closer.
I want the inspection to hurry.
I am scared of observing.
I pretend everything will be okay.
I feel so worried in what he was going to say.
I touch my uniform if it was perfect.
I worry when he calls me out.
I cry because I am sensitive.
I am scared of observing.
I understand the other guys who are being inspected.
I say nothing , but stay quiet.
I dream of living of a free world.
I try to follow the orders.
I hope I can leave.
I am scared of observing .

Among the Free
In the novel, Among The Free written by Margaret Peterson Haddix, has a suspense twist through the story.. The protagonist, Luke Garner,lives in a society so stricted; that they are trying to fight against the Population Police laws. Even my theme is on time, it tells the time or setting the novel is taking place. Haddix's books are very quite popular and twisted to read. A reason why I'm interested into her books , one of my favorite author. However , I think the people would take over the government instead, but won't be able to mantain the people. And things will go chaos.

My Lord, My hero
Hero. "A hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to preserve and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles."- Christopher Reeve. In other words, someone who is capable to obstain life struggles, and to be inspired. Someone you would look up to. I believe everyone has a hero in their life, even if they don't know it. Maybe that's a reason why we live or continued to battle throughout life. It could be person next to them. A family member. Someone you might not know, can be your hero. I have a hero. The one who gave me life to live. The one who loved for all the sinners on earth. The one who shed its blood and died for me on the cross. I believe my hero is my Savior. Jesus Christ. He is the reason why I'm here. However, not everyone believes the same in religion, but I believe in him. I remember a time when my mother and I didn't get along. We gone through so much problems with each other. As of one day, my mother became sickly ill. She was dying. Doctors say she may not be able to live. Even my cousin agreed. I never thought I was close to losing my mom. Walking toward her room, She didn't move nor spoke. I fell down crying on my knees while my aunt hugged me. That night as I got home, I kneel down to my knees and pray to the Lord. I poured my heart to him. I let everything out , everything I kept inside to me. The next following days, I saw my mom getting better; capable of doing things as a human being. I thought to myslef. That he heard my prayers. I thanked him so much till today. That was just one miracle he has shown me; he has done so much to put my family together and peacful. My life has changed completely cause of him. He has been my inpiration to be motivated in this world; he is my ONLY hero. Even though I do face everyday obtacles, I have the Lord to trust.

One day the mother bird said to the three to go out and build lives for themselves and to do good things for others. They we all confused and were questioning each other what does she meant by that. And none understood. Each bird had special gifts. Zedge which was the oldest bird had the strength of a lion but was always too scared to use it. He didn't know want to hurt anyone but he did on accident. One day he saw a turtle and it was on it's back and it could not turn over. Zedge had a big problem how he was going to turn him . He is over 30 lbs. He knew he was strong and he knew he could do it. So he tried with all his might and he flipped that fat turtle. He became very happy with himself and he rejoiced. He than went on his way. Than here comes Zeriah the middle brother. He was an interesting bird very special and crazy. He fell out of the nest as a baby bird.

The squirrel was trapped in a cage and the crazy bird Zeriah said, "I will get you out." He was crazy but smart . The bird began to think. Than he realized that the cage had a lock. He thought to himself. With his tiny little head , he use the beak to peak the lock. He was also proud of himself too. Than comes Aleape the youngest bird was the sneakiest bird of the three than he said to him self "I'm not leaving home." He tried everything to avoid leaving however one day momma bird got tired so she flew away for awhile and he got lonely so he left too. Than he ran into a sneaky raccoon who had tried to steal food. The bird thought he was sneaker than the fox but he was wrong. Than saw the raccoon was about to get shot because he was stealing meat.
