Connecting to Holden
I feel that Holden is lost in his own personality. That he can't actually find out what kind of person he is. I can connect with this. Not on a personal level, but I have observed people around me. Such as some people in my family. I believe that Holden and my family member are very close to being the same in the way that they don't exactly know who they are. Being this way they would not be able to adapt easily to normal society. Provided that they can be able to adapt eventually they have a hard time getting along with people and continuously get kicked out of things or are shunned from the rest of their age group and others.

i agree that Holden is like this, he really gets distracted WAY to easy. He seems like a nice kid but it doesnt seem like he is pushed to try hard in anything
ReplyDeleteI think that a lot of people struggle with who they really are. Especially in the formative teen years. There is a balance between trying to fit in, and not appearing that you are trying to fit in. Some achieve this easily, others never figure it out. I think that's why we become teachers. :)
ReplyDeleteI would agree that hre doesn't really seemn to know who he is and he cannot find his place in the world. This is probably why he isn't the most popular kid, and also why he doesn't really seem to like anyone.
ReplyDeletematt i agree. I He doesnt know himself and I cannot connect with that. He gets lost into his mind. NIce Post
