Analysis of A drawing man will grab at a straw

Audrey Holden 1958 (South Carolina)



My mom Once told me a drowning man will grab at a straw. When things seem hopeless, you feel there's no way out. Please keep fighting while holding your head up high, that's what life is all about. Sometimes you feel like you're sinking and so long too fast. Never ever give up on the race, even thought you may come in last. You should never stop reaching never ever give up on hope, Then  realize that someone is helping you fight. You will suddenly realize every thing will be alright. Although you continue reaching, and it may seem a little too far. Remember, you're not the only one grabbing at that lone floating straw.
