Jordan's Connections

        At first while I was reading "A Tale of Two Cities" I did not see many connections to my life but slowly I began to see some connections to Mr. Lorry. When the book starts Mr. Lorry appears to be a stiff man who doesn't feel for his clients and was just about business. As we find out when he begins to get to know the Manettes he opens up his true self. More than often when I first meet someone I am quiet and I don't talk and I have been told countless times I was shy. But after I get to know someone I relax and just be the person I am around people I trust just like Mr.Lorry revealing who he really was to the Manettes.
