was an eye opener that made me realize to appreciative what God has recue me from because if the Lord had not sent a family from America, I could be living in these environments. At first I didn’t see any positives going to China because of all the bad things that happen to me: missing two weeks of school during junior year (the hardest year of high school), I had flights issues that caused me to stay in Detroit for the night alone, and ate food that instigated unwanted stomach problems. These…

only one that refuse to see the reality of that relationship. In the story we can read that “… we said, "She will persuade him yet," because Homer himself had remarked--he liked men, and it was known that he drank with the younger men in the Elks ' Club--that he was not a marrying man … (Faulkner 161)” Because of this we can understand that Homer had no intention to marry Miss Emily.
