Reflection on Richard Cory

"when I memorized the poem "Richard Cory "I  started to think about it differently. I thought about why he might have killed himself, and I thought about how the poem relates to my life today. I think he killed himself because he was feeling  lonley. His story shows that money isn't everything to have a good life. Richard Cory's story relates to me when I feel stressed out but, I don't think about committing suicide because my family shows me love. The author shows that being happy is much more than having money.

My story

There was a little boy named Daniel, he was always a fan of sports.

Daniel practiced everyday at the park around the corner of his house. One day he was about to quit but that day he quit a older guy came out and gave him a motivation speech, and also started teaching him new basketball moves. Everyday after school he would go to the park and practice with his new coach. 3 months later he was ready to play anyone, and he went to school and beat the kid that was bullying him by 12 points.
