Prompt: Today you created similes and metaphors that reflect your struggles, growth, and resilience. In a well-developed paragraph, reflect on the process. What did you learn about yourself while writing your figurative language?

 I learned many things about myself while writing my figurative language. I learned more about my past, and who I am today. I realized how much my past plays into the present day. The metaphors and similes that I made required me to reflect on my past struggles, growths and resilience in a way that I hadn't thought of before.

Reflection: I bettered my figurative language understanding and composition.
