Sancho Panza

Contrary to those who might delve into the imaginative truths of the text, I am taking a more literal and common sense approach in my belief that the claim Cervantes makes through the narrator of Don Quijote being a “truthful history” is most definitely a claim in jest. It was in all likelihood included to mirror the humorous “realities” believed by the titular knight himself. This same assertion could also be used to justify the seriousness of the claim by way of it being Don Quijote’s “truthful

Self-Awareness Self-awareness is the “conscious knowledge of one 's own character, feelings, motives, and desires”(Merriam-Webster). Self-awareness is key when it comes to understanding ones’ self in relationship to ones actions and reality.

Every object can mean different things to different people even a quiche. After all God can allow His children to see the path he wishes our lives to lead and Andree Seu Peterson does this wonderfully in her article The Quiche Test. She shows how Christians most certainly grow in their walk with God through the adversity God gives us. She speaks of a time when she simply feels like making quiches many times in one week and so her husband simply suggests something that would have been better then

is a man who is quite fond of fantasies and since life is looking down on him after the rejection, he will want to do whatever it takes to turn his story around. So, he is able to take one of his only friends, Sancho, on this journey that would allow them both to end up as great men. Sancho is a complex character with many sides, unlike Quixote, he only lies when he has to.
