For this assignment, you will be
writing a personal narrative–a story–illustrating an event or experience
exemplifying gratitude. In other words, share a colorful story about an
experience or event for which–either during or after the event– you feel or felt
thankful.
An example might be writing about your
experience as a senior in high school and the teacher who helped you to achieve
your goal of graduating and attending college. Another example might be
writing a story about your experience growing up in a rural community,
acknowledging that it was this small, but mighty, community that made you who
you are today, and for this, you are thankful. Sharing a story about a
loved one whose influence has been meaningful to you in some way, and thus, you
feel so very thankful for their role in your life, or in that experience, would
also be an example. Finally, drafting a story about any experience in your life
for which you are thankful it occurred would be a great topic to explore for
this narrative assignment.
