Jordan: because i am reading Persepolis as well Marjane does leave her family and knows that they are doing the right thing for her by giving her a better life style then the one she is living with them(pg.148). as much as she is not liking the idea of them not going with her she knows its for the best and one day she will be united with them.
and i too had to leave my comfort zone when i left high school, i felt like being there most of my time was like a second home to me. as upsetting as it was for me it is always time for a change especially in high school, and maybe my college could give that feeling again.
Sarah: the journey that Marjane is on at the end of the book is pretty much living on her own in Austria to get away from everything in Iran. also what their doing to young girls, marrying them and raping them before they kill them, its cruel(pg.145/146). the decision that Marjane's parents have made for her, i believe was the best thing they could do for her. its like they are practically saving her life and what they want their daughter is for her to live the life she wanted.
if that meant sacrificing, by losing their only daughter and not having her around the way she has always have then that is something they have to do.
for me i don't know where this life will take me, which path or what decisions i will have to make but what i do know, that if i keep fighting for what i want it will eventually come to me and if that is to be my destiny then let it be.
