What was the most interesting quote from today's reading?

I believe that the most interesting quote from this story is, "Sometimes you make choices in life and sometimes choices make you." I like it because I think a lot of people can relate to it. It means that sometimes we don't have get to choose what happens in our life. Sometimes you cant prevent things and that is just the way it is. Life is unpredictable and there is nothing that we can do about it.

What could I take away from today's reading that could improve my life?

I would take away the message that is in the story. Mia's mother, father and brother are dead. She did not know that when they left the house that they would get into a car accident. This shows that we should cherish the things and people in our lives. We should not take things for granted because something could always happen that will take those things away from you. Sometimes we don't realize how important someone or something is until it is gone. Life is unpredictable at times. This is why we need to care about others and let them know we love them, because someday it may be too late to show how we feel.
