"There was the breathlessly anxious fun of chasing and catching flitting fireflies on drowsy summer nights" pg. 45 mid-way

T- sad but hopeful; wants freedom away from his family
W- uses describing words to say what he hopes for in the future, personification (drowsy summer night)
I- "breathlessly anxious"
S-  blank statement, does not use much punctuation
T- While going through difficult times is better to stay hopeful and wanting a better future; throughout the memoir he goes through a lot of difficult moments but he still has the hope to resolve to a better future
