power of one- 15 min freewrite

The power of one is an amazing concept., but what really is the power of one??? no one really knows i think but i could try to give you my personal explation of this novel idea. i think that that it means the power of the one person who can take control over the whole. by that i mean this one person has a specific power to use the people around to make himself or herself more power. this reminds me of the lord of the rings when they say one ring to rule them all but in this case its a person not a ring. in the story the power of one isnt the power of one thing but many things done by one person. i think that is a special concept and there are many things we can learn just by thinking about like how to better our lives and the people around us too. now im just completely lost in my own mind and i dont know what im saying im just sitting here rambling on about complete nonsense and trying to think of things peekay did in thias story that gives him the title of hero the only thing i really think of the fact that he gives hope to the africans through his boxing and how he is the tadpole angel which isnt a very intimidating nickname and personally wouldnt want and im also thinking how fortunate he really is to have friends that would give their lives to save him and also try to give him their money. in the end the book he fought his old nemeisis the judge who is actually kjind of his working partner and is now called botha he confronts him and they fight to a bloody finish with peekay coming out on top which is good. but i didnt really like the ending becuase it leaves me wanting more and i wish there was some sort of sequel that sums up the rest of his life at oxford and hisd boxing career.............now i cant think anything except tonight and how awesome the bball games are goin to be. and i have a couple seconds left until fifteen minutes are up and now im finished
