By writing my personal experience, stronger emotional bonds can be created since the author has experienced what is talked about in the composition. These memories began to develop when I was a kid and more have been created with each trip since then. Pathos focuses its attention on the beliefs and values of the audience it addresses. Describing how the value of family time influenced the decision to make constant trips to Florida, where my “happiest memories” were created, he clearly portrays pathos. The tone is euphoric and nostalgic as it describes experiences with my family that will last a lifetime. I then explained how I want my kids to take the same trips. This further reinforces the appeal to the audience of how important memories can be to a person once created. The images and descriptive details enhance the emotional connection I wanted the audience to make
