When I was in 10th grade I had to get surgery on my shoulder. After surgery I started the journey to recover from the operation. It was very hard because i am right handed and the shoulder i had done was my right. I could not move it at all and could not even dress or feed myself. When my mom saw how much pain I was in she started to help me out as much as she could by making me food and doing pretty much everything that I needed done. With her doing all that stuff for me I never had to leave the couch and could stay in a position that I wasn’t in pain. She is my supernatural aid because without her I dont know how I would of ever been able to get through it.
In the Odyssey and Watership Down they both showed some sort of supernatural aid. Odysseus gets aid from Athena. She was always helping him out in anyway she could. Leucothea also helped Odysseus when his raft was destroyed. In Watership Down Fiver showed his supernatural aid when he had the feeling the some danger was near. Fiver then led some of the other rabbits to a safer place.
The poem I chose is Still Here by Langston Hughes. I chose this poem because it talks about being scarred and battered. Still no matter what it says i’m still here. So pretty much the point of the poem is that no matter what happens keep going and stay with it.
