REFLECTION ON THE LITTLE MAN

although the boy is trying hard to make his mother happy and wants to better his situation, i understand john's point in realizing that the boy alone cannot change th conditions around him. this story was more about difference and oppertunity and because the boy was so willing to change things and make his mother feel better, he will grow up to be one of the brave men who change what they CAN AND HAVE THE ABILTIY to change, hoping that the little changes will lead to bigger and better ones for society.
