The irony is when a person has the opportunity to start your life but will not because it will always be the same mistakes that I spotted in the past.

Opinion

 I like the story because it shows that life should be exploited to the fullest. Like the person will be the same and we can not always trust the same people. We must be what we are and not what we have ahead. In everyday life we must accept ourselves as we are. In addition to loving yourself to be so happy and satisfied.
