My Reflections
Justice at last influenced me to..
not to give up at something I like to play.
Jackie Robinson didn't give up base ball because he loved to play it.
He also didn't listen to anyone who was saying he should quit.
I think that it's cool that he didn't care what people said and kept getting better.
