Always Running

As i read the book "Always Running" by Luis J.Rodrigue,i couldn't believe what i had read. i really got shock. In the begning, the auther whose name Luis Roduiguez introduced him slef, which is his family, his life of baby age, and his schooling.His father was a well eduacate man, and he teached in the school, aslo he would meet some important people in his country too. But this is no longer happend when he moved to L.A. He has to look all around for the job,and his family face serious problem, which was they have no money for living. The apartment they lived is in really bad condition, it doesn't even have heat in the winter. sometimes, they have to take shower in cold icy water.

While i was reading that part, i feel so pity of his childhoold, he had terrible life when he was little boy. He made a lot troubles in the school too, everytime his fater pick him up from the troubles in the school, here's a quote which his father told him "You can't be in a fire and not get burn." This is a exactly condintion what Luis has. He was in the gang, but he didn't feel the way that his father had told him. He join the gang when he was under ten years old, he always play around the people who is in the gang too. He treats his gang as his family. It happend in our society too, the people who ever is in the gang calls other memebers as brothers or sisters, they even spent more time than their home. I think Luis became a member of the gang because of his family too. His family was kinda poor and the parents doesn't really care what he had done. Moreover; his brother is a good fighter too. He was a greates figherter in the school. Everytime the people got afriad when they tries to beat Luis up because his brother is a greatest fighter.It makes Luis wants to be a strong boy, he wants to be like his brother.so nobody will emuse around him. And later on, he participate every fighting while he was in the gang. He thinks that was his duty if there's some fighting in his gang, and he must go with his "brothers" to attact the members which is other gang. As Luis grow older, he had more fights. He had been in the jail for many times. Actually he was always running after he had fought with other people. He had to escape from the polices and other people who would attacted him. About his age of 18, he realized that he was so tire of the gang, he wants to jump out of it. He has been a member of the gang almost of his whole chilhood, now he has a child, he has a family,he doesn't want to play his life around anymore. He started try to settle down. Eventually he got out of the gang.

Being a member of the gang is really dangerous. It as you are playing the fire. you can't be safe if there is the fire around you, you will definitely get involve of it. In the same words, you will never be safe while you are in the gang. You will never expected when your life will be end, unless you are out of the gang.
