Dia De Los Muertos.

In my heritage a day we celebrate iDia de Los Muertos. It takes place on October 31st and is held in honor of family or friends that have passed. Ways we celebrate is by having parades with dancers, music, masks with certain drawings that could represent certain things, and with prayers. In my family what we do is we all get together at my grandmas, put pictures of all the people that have passed and pray. We watch videos of those who have passed trying to remember them in the best way with no tears to shed. Of course some tears come out of us, but a day to remember those who have passed is worth it. Joy comes a long, memories are remembered, and family's are brought together.

Second Thoughts.

     Without intention sixteen year old Cheyenne Wilder had been kidnapped, being the daughter of a president of a powerful cooperation, needing prescription antibiotics for her pneumonia, to top it off? She was blind.
     Towards the middle of the book Griffin had already set Cheyenne in the room where she would stay while they figured what'd they do with not only the car but with her since she had came in it. Griffin fed Cheynne, checked up on her every once in a while, and he defended her. During the stay there, a guy that was working with Griffin and his father with the jobs, had tried to cross the line with Cheynne and touch her, that way. Griffin had came bursting into the room, and told him it wasn't right for him to do something like that to a little girl. Griffin cared about her, but the way the relationship with his dad was set up, he couldn't let them know or show that he did. Cheyenne made him realize a lot, how the house was always a mess, why Griffins mother had left and the struggle she had while being there. After realizing all those things, he realized the way that he had been acting wasn't him, he could do better. Debating with the other men he would think of not hurting Cheyenne in any way. The others thought killing her would be the solution, just the thought of leaving her there, helpess without knowing where to go made Griffin have second thoughts. I wonder, what he is to do when the times comes to make that decision.
