Along with a dozen boys, I made a trip to Iowa in order to see a college that I was thinking of attending many years ago. Although the trip had been fun for the most part, I felt 1 from time to time. I was missing my family and 2that I wouldn't be seeing them much if I studied here. I was also missing the3of my home. I loved how they 4 a thousand shades of green in the spring and then became a sea of gold, red and orange in the fall. I loved the smell of the wild flowers.
Here in Iowa everything was flat. What I could see was a wild prairie (大草原) with no trees. All that I could 5was a mixture of corn, mud and pigs. One day after a long walk, I rested with my eyes closed and 6being back home again. 7, when I opened them, I saw something that 8my heart. It was a grassland sunset. It seemed to fill the sky from horizon to horizon. Gold, red and purple clouds all 9together in a picture painted by nature's own hand. It was so10that it took my breath away. It made the sunsets of my hometown seem tiny in 11. At that moment I knew how 12 and judgmental I had been. This place also had its own 13. This place was also a part of nature's creation.
Over the years to come I learned something else. Each of us has a(n) 14beauty as well. Each of us has our own unique15and abilities.
