I chose this quote because I think it relates to Majiro and myself because we both try not to focus on the negative things in life but accomplish your dream that you have to set your mind to. Manjiro and I have our goals, his goal was to go to America and have a live there. My goal is to travel to Alaska. Also we both fight for what we belive in. Not physical but mentally. We both have felt guilty about something but we asked forgiveness or told the truth, that is how Manjiro and I got rid of the guilt. Majiro and I are honest. Like when Manjiro told the captain about how the watch got lost.
