The main point of the story is just because you can't see something doesn't make it not achievable. The purpose of this story is not being confined by what you can only see. To allow you to open your mind and search for the things that you can not see. The thesis of the story is, "I don't know if I'm fine or if it's okay, or if saying it makes anyone feel better. Mostly it's just something to say" (Doerr 158). It seems like this is the thesis because she seems sad during her thesis in the beginning of the story and then still seems sad at the end of the story, "Out the window it starts to snow" (Doerr 186).
