This leaves Jeanette without a permanent place to call home and leave everything behind, including friends and belongings with a sentimental feeling.]]> 2022-12-09 20:27:15 UTC https://padlet.com/3703092/61bcyc7etianrcao/wish/2416032375 Forgiveness once won't be the same after the second time and so on. 3703092 https://padlet.com/3703092/61bcyc7etianrcao/wish/2416208887 This picture of two siblings holding onto each other is reflective of the amount of times Jeanette had to forgive their parents for their irresponsibilities leaving her siblings and Jeannette to grieve on each other. This is an example of Forgiveness because in page 174, Rose Mary says 'You should forgive me, like you always forgave dad for drinking' after admitting to being a sugar addict. ]]> 2022-12-10 04:23:32 UTC https://padlet.com/3703092/61bcyc7etianrcao/wish/2416208887 The only option left after being handed failures and disappointment is Acceptance. 3703092 https://padlet.com/3703092/61bcyc7etianrcao/wish/2416232728 'Maybe I should move to New York City right now and graduate from high school there' Jeannette says in page 236.
