In my reading I noticed that live can be very disappointing at some times because of the loss you had. But Steve Jobs’ speech told me to not give up when live knocks you down, because you can choose to get back up or stay down. Steve Jobs’ live wasn’t so good because at first when he was born he almost got adopted, then at college he don’t know what to do, he has no money, have to work very hard to eat because of lack of money, and pancreatic cancer. Steve Jobs’ also thought me that don’t give up, because if you want something bad you have to work hard for it. His speech thought me many things that inspires me to keep living and to “Stay Hungry, and Stay Foolish” which means to stay hungry for knowledge and to keep making decisions and mistakes. When he said “Stay Hungry, and Stay Foolish” it was like the sentence was telling me to not be afraid to make mistakes because you will learn from your mistakes. This topic connects on how my father used to live in his college years. He have to save money to eat and he had to walk a long distance with his friends to find a great food with a great price.

Life can be hard sometimes just like how Steve Jobs said “Sometimes live can hit your head with a brick, but don’t lose faith.” I quoted this because my father have said this many times in my life telling me to not give up when live gets hard. He told me that you can choose to get back up or stand down and watch other people succeed by fighting for their dreams and not giving up, and giving up is not an option for my father. To me this article is important because it reminds to not give up and to not lose faith.

I really like how you link Steve Jobs’s story to what you learned. You did a great job in connecting what you learned to your father’s story and you put your own words in it. However, you have some vocabulary and grammatical mistakes. Anyways, good job Billehhh (:

I think you did a good job on explaining about Steve Job’s life, putting your thoughts into your writing, and connecting in your writing. But I think you have a few grammar mistakes.
