A man that had to sell himself to be successful, meaning he always knew what was the best for him. In his later years, my father became extremely difficult to be around. The more I didn’t want to pursue his dreams, the less he wanted to be around me.

Once he decided to join, he informs all of his friends about the exciting news until Neil’s father, Mr. Perry, gets word and demands for his son’s private attention out in a nearby hallway. For the majority of Neil’s life, choices have been made for him. He’s been living out the ideas of Thoreau, animating a "life of quiet desperation” and can’t seem to “suck the marrow” out of life. Mr. Perry’s academic expectations of his son are so high not even Neil is convinced that he’ll fulfill them with a cheerful heart.
