In Romans 1:21, the apostle Paul wrote that those who did not share gratitude towards God became vain and deluded; in other words, ingratitude makes for negative feelings. The act of being grateful builds positive feelings, such as that in Luke 17:11-19, where written is the Samaritan giving thanks to Jesus for curing his leprosy. In short, out of the ten healed leprous men, only the Samaritan had the decency to thank Jesus with utter gratitude for His merciful act.…

    The narrator’s conflict and motives for his actions were that he was embarrassed, because he was deciding to run away instead of going to war.
