How Does Commitment Affect The Boy In The Striped Pajamas

My universal theme, which could be one of the most important, is commitment. Commitment is your devotion to something. If you are committed to something, then you will not stop doing that certain thing until it is accomplished. Commitment is obligation, it is passion, but it is also voluntary. Not everyone chooses to always be committed, but at some point in someone’s life, they are committed to something. Commitment affects everything, even books. Three books that I read (The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, I Promised I would Tell, and The Diary of Anne Frank - The Play) are just some examples of commitment. Commitment effects The Boy in the Striped Pajamas because Bruno and Shmuel made promises and sacrifices to each other, to help each other and stay friends. (Boyne 134) Everyday, Bruno brought and smuggled food to his struggling friend on the other side of the fence. Bruno still brought food over to Shmuel, even though he would get into a lot of trouble helping his Jewish friend. However, commitment doesn’t just affect my independent reading book.
Commitment should and does affect everyone, but it affects me because I am committed to soccer, and trying to make the best team I can. A photograph of me playing soccer will represent my personal visual piece. The photograph taken by my sister connects to commitment because it shows me practicing, and getting better at soccer. I am committed to soccer and being the best I can be because I love it, and I’ve always had the dream of making the varsity team, or possibly something even bigger in the future. I always put 100% effort into my practices and out. I even started to run track so I can get in shape and be in my best condition to play and practice the sport I love. Commitment affects everyone; it’s in everyone’s life, no matter how big or small it may be. For me, commitment is in my life in the form of soccer, I’m committed to becoming a better player, and making the best team
