This may sound harsh, but it's not untrue to how some of us feel. It is easy to feel buried
by our circumstances. However, he (the pastor) goes on to paint a picture of a farmer planting
a seed. Did the farmer bury the seed? Well, yes, but he also planted it. Instead of feeling buried
by our situation, we must realize that the pain and heartache that has been piled upon us is not
meant to bury, but to plant us in a way that will allow us to grow and prosper into who we are
meant to be. As you stop and take in the circumstances around you, will you allow yourself to
be buried or to be planted?
As we move on from this place and embark on the next big journey of life, whether
that's college, the workforce or something else, life will at some point begin to feel like it's
going too fast. My bike rides have taught me a new way to handle these times because they
allow me to exercise and be among the beauty of nature, which are things that cause me to slow
down. When life becomes too much like a race for you, it may not be riding a bike. It may be
playing an instrument, sport, creating art or something else entirely. I encourage you to find
that one thing that allows you to unwind and refocus when life seems too much to handle.
Now, I'd like to take you on a bike ride with me as we share this experience together in
our faces, something that is both exciting and terrifying: freedom. We sit atop our bikes of life
as high school graduates and now have the freedom to choose who we are and where we
will go

Explanation:

a biography is a genre that mainly accounts somebody's life and that is written by somebody else. this genre supports sonia nazario's desire to share enrique's life because she can fully inform readers of his entire emotional journey.

in a biography, an author can share the readers almost everything about a person's life, or just one key event or personal aspect the author is interested in telling, like in this specific case in which sonia nazario is centered in enrique's emotional journey.

in a place once known as north america, now known as panem, is a very rich city surrounded by twelve districts. every year because this very rich city, known as the capitol, is so rich and likes to think they control all the districts - which they do - there is something known as the hunger games! this is where two children, one boy and one girl from each district from the ages of twelve to eighteen, have to leave their families and compete in the hunger games, a live event that is aired on tv's all over panem. when katniss everdeen, aged sixteen from district 12, has to volunteer to take the place of her twelve-year-old sister prim after prim's name is called forth to become the 23rd member to compete in the 74th hunger games, she promises to prim that she will win! katniss doesn't believe she's coming out alive - but she's not going down without a fight.

because district 12 is so poor, katniss has been close to death many times from starvation but she's made it through it. but this is a different kind of close to death; this katniss doesn't know if she can survive.

she doesn't want to hurt, or kill anyone but when it comes down to it katniss' instinct is to survive. but when she starts to have confusing feelings about the boy from her district who is also her fellow contender, things get worse, and then she teams up with the girl from district 11 and only one person can survive. but who will it be? will her feelings get the better of her? will she let someone else win so they don't have to die? if katniss is going to win she's going to have to be brutal. she's going to have to kill!
