Patria's theme song

I chose patria as the sister to find a song for, because she inspires me the most. I love how sweet and kind she is to everyone and also how passionate she is about things like love, and her religion. The thing that struck me the most about Patria was how she had to "find herself". This is shown in her quote, "I put my hands up to the glass to remind her that she, too, must reach up for the things she didn't understand" (45). I read this and thought how hard she was working to try and figure out who she really was and what she stood for. The song I picked for Patria is "Closer to Fine" by The Indigo Girls. It's a song about a girl trying to really find our what is most important to her, and what she wants her life to be about. She does everything she can to figure it out, and in the end, she does. This is the same thing that happened to Patria. She wanted her life to be about Catholicism since she wanted to become a nun in the Inmaculada Concepcion school. The girl in the song also wanted to be about religion and God, but then I think she changed her mind, and just did whatever she wanted to do. This is pretty much the same story, so I thought that it fit Patria well. One part of the song goes, "I went to the doctor, I went to the mountains, I looked to the children, I drank from the fountains. There's more than one answer to these questions, pointing me in a crooked line. And the less I seek my source for some definitive, the closer I am to fine." This part, the chorus, shows how many things the girl in the song tried to do to figure out her life, but then in the end, the way she "found herself" was not trying so hard and just being herself, living her life like normal. Once Patria just stressed out less about becoming a nun, she realized what she really wanted in life.
