Today in class we read an essay called “A message to Garcia.” The essay was written in 1899, but took place in 1898. The essay was very hard to understand because the words used weren’t words that we could choose today. The essay was about a two males named Garcia, and Rohan. Garcia was on an island in Cuba which was isolated and had no connection, by telegraph or any. The hardworking Rohan was put on a task to get a letter to Garcia. While every other worker has tried this task, and had failed. Rohan had achieved it with no complaints, or questions. The essay was supposed to portray a theme, or message. I got out of it that the theme was, the less you complain the more respect you with get from others. Everyone who had complained failed the task, with no complaints or unnecessary comments Rohan achieved his task leaving him with accomplishment, and glory from others.
