Exit Slip: TSS Quote Paragraph“Yeah, Jesse here is writing my life up,” Rise went
on. “I’ve been telling him there’s three important times in a man’s life. The first was when he was born. That’s about the circumstances he got going for him. Then when he dies. That’s about what he’d done with his days. But there’s one minute in his life where he makes the big D to take over his life. That’s what most people don’t do, take charge of their lives. Ain’t that right, Jesse?” (p. 172)
Prompt: Do you agree or disagree with Rise? Use information from the text and your experiences to support your response.
