Think about ways you are like the rose. What are the things in your life that can be represented by the concrete?

If you are talking about the poem about the rose growing out of concrete i just read that today and my answer may help.

Explanation:

In some ways i am like the rose because i defined the rules and i decided that i was going to be in control of my life not follow rules that have been set to control my way of life. I am like the concrete because i am there sometimes when certain rules need to be enforced and followed.

Here is the poem i am speaking about ><

" Did you here about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete "

Proving Nature's Law is wrong

It learned to walk without feet

It learned to breathe fresh air

Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else cared.

the answer:

in the first part of the story running is all that matters to squeaky. running gives her confidence and defines who she is. at the beginning of the story she says that other kids call her mercury because she runs very fast. in the text she refers to herself as "miss quicksilver".

the line that provides the best evidence that squeaky has self-confidence is

" and i continue with my breathing exercise, strolling down broadway toward the ice cream man on 145th with not a care in the world cause i am miss quicksilver herself".
