Character is largely defined by what group you are involved in. Lupe's character is based of her relationship with God. Lupe is obedient, spiritual, optimistic, and often called an angel from God. Lupe uses frequent references to God and his miracles in the world. This seems unrealistic because of the threatening soldiers coming to town, and living in poor conditions with three other siblings. Lupe is calm in tight situations showing how mature she is even if she does not want to. Lupe’s character comes from her mother Dona Guadalupe the stronghold of the house. Dona would do anything for her family even if she died to save all of her children. She wakes up early every single day making food for the mine workers just to get a little wage so she can feed her family. The mayor of the town changes his character after the soldier abused his daughter, by not being just to the people of the town and let them suffer.

I would definitely agree that Lupe's character is based of her relationship with God. She describes every major part of the day as a miracle, like the sun, her meals, and waking in the morning.

ReplyDeletei think that because of her relationship with God Lupe and her family are able to recognize everyday miracles such as the new day and not worry so much about threat of soldiers and be thankful that their family has remained unharmed.
