I am the messenger blog #1


Ed learns that his friends are like his family, maybe the only family he has. Then a little after in the story we find out his friends are trying to help him out but they really don’t want to be all up in his business. It changes how he relates to them because now he doesn’t tell them everything that has been going on because he knows they are going to think he is crazy. Well in some ways I do see a connection between me and some people because I have a few people who I can actually call friends, the rest are just people I know. To my friends I know if I tell them something that goes on with me I know they will care but the other people will act selfish and be sarcastic

Ed and his family don’t seem like a real family to me. Ed’s mom treats him how she wants and she calls him names and has no respect for him. She is kind of heartless and doesn’t really show affection for Ed. Unlike his mom, his friends hang out with him and give him company. Audrey also states that she cares a lot for Ed.

I think the doorman is an important element in the story because he is important to the main character, Ed. I also think he represents something like if he is a symbol for something. That symbol could mean that even though a person doesn’t communicate with you that they will always care for you and be there for you. I also think its symbolizing that the doorman is going to do something for Ed
