Gentle Giant

   Despite his struggle to be accepted, the monster still sees beauty in his environment. After he has had time to collect his anger, he finds himself regretting his outburst. "The pleasant, sunshine and the pure air of day restored me to some air of tranquility; and when I considered what had passed at the cottage, I could not help believing that I had been too hasty in my conclusions." (p.g 126) He decides that soon he will return to the De Lacey family to attempt to show them his true self again. The monster realizes that although the humans have mistreated him, he may be at fault for assuming that they will welcome him. Until now he has not considered that he may be behaving unreasonably- he could be acting with more patience and understanding given that he is abnormal.
