The importance of “The Handsomest Drowned Man” was made to teach a lesson. What I interpreted from this short story is to treat others like you’ll like to be treated. We can mistreat people and not notice it. We have to be careful about what we say or do. Throughout life you should always treat others equal because you never know who you may need in the long run.
When the children’s noticed that it was a man floating ashore, it made me ponder. I began to think about how many people bodies are in the ocean and nobody know where they are at. In our world today, people go missing every day. A couple years after they’ve been missing we hear about their remains being found. However, I wonder does anyone think about bodies being in the ocean.
I also was inspired to be thankful to know this type of situation has never occurred in my family. Esteban was an innocent man who so happened to end up drowning in the ocean without anyone knowing. It is so important to love your family and tell them it a lot because you never know when your love one’s life will come to an end. There are many things in life that we take for granted. We should begin to reconsider life as a whole and be more grateful for the simplest things in life.
