Jewells Ellis 810
Do you ever feel as if there is something about you that you can not get rid of and is separating you from other people of the world and you feel as if you are being categorized? Well, The Fault in our Stars is a book that any teen who feels different or unique should read.
It shows them how being unlike every other average teenager can affect how people see you as a person. People will judge you before they actually get to know you. In this world, I feel as if people should get to know a person before they judge them. I believe change is possible but people are too busy not caring about other people anymore.
Hazel and Augustus both are different because of their disabilities/illness and they have experienced people looking at them as if they weren't even human. People don't realize that they are no different than them. They may have more priorities to take care of but that doesn't change them.
Hazel was experiencing that during social interactions, her friends would feel awkward and self-conscious around her. People feel like they have to watch what they say around them so they won't feel bad if they say something that offends them. People don't realize that doing that actually makes the "sick" people the ones to feel self-conscious because all they want is to be talked to and treated normally.
In conclusion, it is hard to live with a disability/illness causing you to be unique or looked at as different in such a judgeful world. In my opinion, i think people should be more conscious of how they look at or treat people with a kind of problem. If everyone were to act like that, this world wouldn't be as categorized.
