My friend Keira, has all the determination-devoted into everything she does. She makes the sport of Skating come alive and has small conversations and tea with her everyday. In math the numbers talk to her as she is motivated to get the assignments done. Keira was determined to get me to go on the Goliath roller coaster when I was terrified to do so, this was the color Black. The determination that pours out of her is like lava erupting from a volcano.

          My mother’s determination is the same but different. It is the same when my mother gets me to do the terrifying hard things. Different when She shifts her mind to new strategies and ways to get something done like the different parts of a storm that once together become captivating and innovating, just like my mother.
