Giving without Recieving

Liz is getting worse every time she goes to the ODs. All the time she spent there helped her finally get to know who killed her. She also finds the necessity to communicate with her loved ones at earth so she searches until she comes up with the name of the only person that will help her without questioning. Curtis Jest, Lizzie’s favorite singer. She goes directly to Curtis and ask  him how could she make contact with the ones that are down there in  land. By this time, Lizzie bettered her relationship with his grandma Betty! She worked taking care of the new dogs at Elsewhere, at the Division of Domestic Animals. Within her job, a dog called Sadie comes into play. OMG! Liz finally makes a friend, a canine one, but it counts.  Liz found Sadie drinking water from the toilet the first day she went to work, and she decided it was time for her to get out of there. Going back to making contact with the living ones, Curtis explains Lizzie two different ways, but she only remembers one. One day Liz finally decides on what she was going to do and goes to the river where she was supposed to swim with her diving equipment and find a door which connected with the living ones. She made it; she told her brother that a cashmere sweeter was in the closet for his daddy’s birthday. Alvy, who was the one Liz was talking to, understood the wrong closet and got into trouble. By his time, Liz was already in a tramp and was got out of the water by the security guard, Owen. 

 “As a DDA counselor, you’ll mainly deal in dogs, of course, but within our division, we also deal with all house hold pets: cats, some pigs, the occasional snake, guinea pigs and so on.” (Zevin 133)

I founded strange when Liz spend so much time doing nothing, and then all of a sudden she has a job and she is practically having his happiness back. It is amazing how a human being can become another person basically when they are enjoying and doing what they like in their lives. Lizzie just needed a push of courage and be what her inside told her. Let her bright shine.

“I’m just a girl who forgot to look both ways before she crossed the street.” (Zevin 147)

This quote gives us a meaningful message, to every living human.  Liz, who was only fifteen years old, lost her life, because of one single mistake.  Pay attention and look both ways when you are crossing the streets, otherwise, the life taken, will be yours. Be careful also in cars, watch people who are crossing the street, you won’t want to be a murderer.
