Alonso Quijada. Don Quijote, a crazy man who does
crazy things. But why do so many people read about him?
Is it because he's crazy or is he teaching us something? Don Quijote, a man who followed his dreams
to be a gentleman. Without that dream, could he have lived long? I think not. Without a
mission in life, what is the reason to live?
Before I read Don Quijote, I was lost. I didn't know who I was or what
I wanted to do with my life. I was so lost that I wanted to end my life.
Why, you ask? Because everyone told me that my dream was stupid, that
I was crazy to think that my dream would come true.
And I agree. Dreams can't come true, but if you work hard and give life
to your dream, you'd be living in a dream. And who says I can't live in a dream?
After I read Don Quijote, I found my mission, my dream. What is my mission? To use
my talents to make the world a happy place to live in.
To make people smile and give them a reason to live.
I don't care who says I'm crazy, who laughs at me, who says I can't achieve
something. I'll be a singer, an artist, and do
what I love to make the world a better place to live in. And it starts here in this classroom.
