Read the excerpt from Heart of a Samurai. How does Manjiro overcome his anxiety in the excerpt?
Manjiro tried to put his heart in order. He said a sutra - a
prayer – for his ancestors, his family, his friends, and for
himself. Then he waited for his heart to go back where it
belonged instead of jumping all over inside his chest.
He looks for someone to talk to.
O He grieves for the family he left behind.
O He thinks about what he is afraid of.
O He gives himself time to feel peaceful inside.
