A Worn Path

1.The narrator is telling the story without saying how the person really feels or thinks.
2.A Phoenix is a bird that is more mythical than real and I think this is also the mindset that she has; her visions were unrealistic as well.
3.It makes you feel like you were missing something. I read her visions so closely it was like I was missing thing as a read.
4.She was looked down upon. They had respect for her but treated her like a youngster.
5.The dog was young and energetic. She wished that she had the dog’s energy.
6.The saying is just stating that she is getting old and she can’t do anything about it.
