Life is hard and finding a reason to do certain things like finding a job seem pointless because somewhere in there life they made a mistake that they don't think they can fix because they have no hope. Hope is hard to come by but there is no reason to give up on it because without hope in your life there is nothing left, only the cold facts, but some people believe that there is hope and they are in no way willing to give up. When there is a will there is a way. Esperanza is a girl who lives in the ghetto but she knows that she is to strong to live on Mango Street forever.
Esperanza is one of those people that believe in hope. Esperanza knows that life is hard but, especially for her. Esperanza lives in a place were she feels trapped by the fact that she lives in a bad neighborhood, in a house that she believes is less that perfect. She knows that it will be hard to leave her neighborhood and getting a good job that pays well but she will not be discouraged. In the chapter "Bums In The Attic" Esperanza says "I want a house on a hill like the ones hat papa works at" she is saying that she will not loose and she wants to live big. Almost all the people in Mango street believe that there is no way out because they believe that a life outside of Mango street is no better than a life in Mango Street.
Esperanza is motivated and she is not willing to loose her humanity when she gets her house. Esperanza says "bums will ask to come in and when they do I will offer them the attic." She knows how it feels to have a house krises because she has had a house that does not feel like a home. Esperanza wants to leave her neighborhood and was looking for a way to escape and she looked up to a girl named Sally. Sally was liked by all the boys at school and Esperanza notices this and she also knows that Sally she has a plan for leaving Mango Street, Sally says ,"I will find a rich man that will take me away from Mango Street and I will marry him". Esperanza likes this plan because if Esperanza does this then she can be rich and leave Mango Street. Sally then gets married to a man that is none of those things that she said her husband would be so Esporanza decides that this was not a good plan so Esperanza decided that she had her own plan for life.
Esperanza can only get stronger. She has to much hope to become discouraged by everything negative that has happened to her. Esperanza is stronger than most of the people in Mango Street. I say this because she thinks differently than everybody else on Mango Street, while other say when get am old enough I am going to get married and have lots of children. Esperanza says that she wants to live in a great place where she can be happy. No matter how hard we try we cannot get rid of the fear of the feature because no one can see into it but we can try to have it.
