Brutally punished for trying from "summary" of Autobiografía de un esclavo by Juan Francisco Manzano
I remember the times when I dared to dream of freedom. The very thought of escaping the chains that bound me filled my heart with a sense of hope and courage. I longed for a life where I could be my own master, where I could breathe the air of liberty without fear or restraint. But every time I tried to break free from my shackles, I was met with brutal punishment. The whip would come down hard on my back, leaving me scarred and broken. The chains would tighten around my limbs, reminding me of my place in this cruel world. I was constantly reminded of the consequences of my defiance, of the price I had to pay for daring to dream. Despite the pain and suffering, I refused to give up. I held on to the flicker of hope that burned within me, fueling my desire for freedom. I knew that the road to liberation would be fraught with danger and hardship, but I was willing to face it all for the chance to be free. Each time I was punished for trying, it only strengthened my resolve. I refused to let the chains of slavery bind my spirit, to crush my will to be free. I knew that the path to freedom was a treacherous one, but I was willing to endure whatever it took to achieve it. And so, I continued to fight for my freedom, to resist the oppressors who sought to keep me in chains. I knew that the road ahead would be long and arduous, but I was determined to see it through to the end. For I knew that the sweet taste of freedom was worth every drop of blood, every tear shed along the way.
