I believe that one of the main themes for this book was getting through all the conflicts in life. Juan faced many challenges on his journey from Cuba. He escaped a shark, survived a hurricane, and found his true love. He was continuously thinking about what he was going to do next, and how to survive the next step. Every time he solved one problem, there was always something else right around the corner. He came face to face with death so many times, but he was able to get through everything.
This theme relates to our own lives all the time. For us, our conflicts may not be as extreme, but they are always there. Every day we’re faced with something new we have to deal with. From frustrating homework in school, to resisting peer pressure, we always have to make hard choices. Life is constantly throwing different obstacles in our way. This book showed that life isn’t easy, but it’s always worth it in the end.
