pg. 789 Odyssey Part 2 Quick write.

Every bird's got to leave its nest. One day, all of us will leave home to soar in the skies. As the wind rippled across our face as we glided through the free, open air with gracious vigor, we couldn't help but miss home. After years of wondering and accomplishing, one day, you decided to return to your old home. At that time, people will have different reactions. Some will feel incredibly nostalgic. Those are the sentimental types. One can observe their eyes widen at the sight of their homeland. They would step in gently, nimbly, and almost soundlessly. Their fingers will strike the bark of the old oak tree they spent so much time as a child under, and they lie stare up the mountains the way they used to when they were little. Tears would then swell in their eyes as a feeling of happy joy reached them. Another type would be so set on seeing their homeland that they would dash directly for their house and family. This is the energetic and impatient type. Another type would be hesitant at the doorsteps of their home, afraid. So much could have changed since their last arrival and they are afraid to find out what those changes are. There is also another type that contained all the qualities combined. He or she can be nostalgic, joyous and afraid at the same time. Personally, I would probably be a combination of all. I'm sure many would agree.
