criteria
- 2-4 sentences
- Shows settling, not a tacked-on moral
- ≥1 subordinating conjunction with correct comma
- Optional: names what changed (abstract noun or feeling)
Hints
- A resolution shows the next breath, not a life-lesson.
- If you reflect, name what changed in the narrator, not 'I learned to ___'.
Misconceptions to watch
- Adds a tacked-on moral ('And I learned to never give up!').
- Writes a generic ending that doesn't connect to this specific moment.
