This week I decided to chose this photo I took over the summer. How this picture relates to Anna is where I was headed on that plan ride. That Plane was flying leaving the United States and heading to Macedonia. My family is from Macedonia and i have been going their almost every summer since i was in elementary school. Summers over their meant everything to me and my brothers because their i felt like we were finding the other halves of us that the united states couldn't quite fulfill. While there we met lots of our cousins creating bonds and relationships like we had been living together our whole life, we just felt so complete and overly exicted over there. I relate this to Anna because she was separated from her family and sent to the United States but when she was old enough to return she felt whole and again and reunited with the soil in which she was created she felt complete again with a sense of relief. This is similar to the feelings that me and my family feel when spending any time over there. While in the states a feeling of companionship and friendship is lost because i can better relate and connect with my friends over there because our entire culture and religion is exactly the same just because we were brought up in different countries doesn't mean we are not alike in many different ways.
