Like Stars on Earth:: tentative outline and thesis statement

    
   After the encouragements Ishaan had received from Aamir Khan by agreeing, supporting his art works, he had realized that being unique isn't wrong, but instead you should be proud of yourself and believes into your own special potential. Ishaan was originally a boy losing confidence because of his unique situation that no adults could understand, until he met this art teacher that brought back his confidence and leaded him to start doing what he's truly good at doing—arts. In such a competitive world, most parents wanted their children to act well and be successful in school; Ishaan wasn't, and of course his parents were disappointed. During this point, when his parents did not try their best to understand their son's idea, moreover even blamed him, have caused he's lost of self-confidence and happiness. This reminded me of Lorenzo's situation where he felt like no one understands him, even his closest family did not try understanding and caring about his real feelings deeply inside. All of these sadness and disappointment both main character felt have been fixed and redirected because of another important person they met in life. No matter because of Olivia from Me and You or Aamir from Like Stars On Earth, they both helped changed main character's hopeless attitude towards life into a positive and bright attitude that they both started believing in themselves; after meeting this one special person that gave another hope, no matter in what way—sharing friendships, feeling loved or encouragements by words they've spoken, all of these made a sad person started to believe in a better tomorrow.
