Harry lives on a farm with his father, Mr. Thorburn and he is sent to go take care of the sheep for a night or two. While Harry is taking care of the sick lamb and big eagle swoops in and takes one of the sheep, and Harry tries to fight the eagle off but it unsuccessful. When Harry later returns to home telling his father what occurred, but his father doesn't believe Harry unless he shows proof. Harry goes back to the hut and once again the eagle comes back, but this time Harry is ready for the eagle. He carries the died eagle back to his farm showing his father, and finally winning his father's love.
Harry in the begginging of the story was weak and flimsy and didn't achieve his father's respect, but at the end of the story he completely transforms. He becomes strong inside and outside and finally wins his father's love and appreciation once and for all. When Harry was fighting back he was standing up for himself against his father, and when Harry was killing the eagle he gained self-worth by his father. Events and decisions have transformed Harry but also myself. Meeting new people, getting my appendix out, expanding friendships, traveling through rich and diverse cultures are events that changed me as a person. Seeing and expanding on things I've already learned, making mistakes and learning and growing from them. All theses events have a specific path that changes throughout my life depending on my decisions and what path my feet want to take.
