The primary purpose of a short story is to entertain its readers. However, short stories can do much more than simply entertain: they can teach you valuable lessons and introduce you to new, exciting ideas. Think of a short story that you’ve read that has meant something to you. It can be one of the short stories from this unit or one that you’ve read on your own. Think about why you like the story you have chosen. Then, compare and contrast the short story to other stories you’ve read. Explain what makes the story you chose stand out more than other stories. Did the point of view make the story particularly appealing to you? Did the characters or the setting draw you in? Was the writing style inviting and approachable? What was it about the story’s message and ideas that interested you?

I will give you extra points if the answer looks good enough. ^^

No stories really stand out to me. They all are the same to me, but if I had to choose one, it is more so a short video, well it was a long one more so. It was about expecting anxiety as a part of you. This video was made by Thomas Sanders and was about his Anxiety "ducking out." His anxiety thought he wasn't wanted, but in the end, Character! Thomas tells his anxiety he is needed because without his anxiety, he can't function. Your anxiety is what helps you to remember to turn off the oven or stove, or locking your front door, or your homework. Without anxiety, you have no sudden reaction to things that could hurt you. Your anxiety is your Flight or Flight reflexes. I loved all of it and it helped me earn to accept my own anxiety. All of the characters are fun, lovable, funny, and somewhat relatable. The funny reactions and the memorable quotes from the characters.
