Skinned Blog 6

"Put me back the way I was.I don't care about the injuries. I don't care. Put me back." "One leg, one arm, no skin, I didn't care. As long as I was human. As long as I was me. "It's not possible." "Anything's possible if you want it enough." Chapter 3 Page 34

This passage goes back to one of the essential questions of what does it mean to be human? Lia in this passage says that as long as she was human she was okay. Without a leg or arm, or just one of each or no skin she was going to be happy if she was still human. I think even though she has been in an accident she has a lot of positivism within her because she does not care about everything else, but to be human is the most important thing for her because she can still be breathing. Another positivism part would have to be the everything is possible if you want it enough and this very true.
If the doctors want her to be normal again and to function well they will have to be positive that if they use the skills and technology required Lia will be human again and she will be happy.
The language that is used in this passage is of pure positivism and people that are like Lia will get far because they know what they want and if they don't have everything they need they can still make out in life but being human and being real. Overall I think this book gives in a lot of thought on how to be human in a new body and is like a symbolism to me because it means that even though all this things happen life still keeps going. I personally like the people that are positive because they live life with pure happiness and that all the dreams that you want to make real are reachable and is up to you to be happy is your responsibility not somebody else's.
