An Unexpected Journey
One evening my father came home with multiple forms that needed to be filled out. One was for my mother and the second one was for my father to complete. He put the forms in the living room table and said “I have good news!”My dad’s face lit up like christmas tree, his smile was ear to ears, his face was glowing with happiness and we all gathered together to hear his good news. My mother on the other hand was not that impressed, “What did you buy this time?”, she asked my father.

If you look at the other sentences, you'll see they are permeated with opinions. When the author talks about letting [his] imagination run wild, making significant contributions, and producing nonsense, he is expressing his opinions. Other authors might very well regard those things differently.
