3rd Reflection

In a moment, everything can change,
Feel the wind on your shoulder,
For a minute, all the world can wait,
Let go of your yesterday.

Can you hear it calling?
Can you feel it in your soul?
Can you trust this longing?
And take control,

Fly
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

All your worries, leave them somewhere else,
Find a dream you can follow,
Reach for something, when there's nothing left,
And the world's feeling hollow.

Can you hear it calling?
Can you feel it in your soul?
Can you trust this longing?
And take control,

Fly
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

And when you're down and feel alone,
Just want to run away,
Trust yourself and don't give up,
You know you better than anyone else,

In a moment, everything can change,
Feel the wind on your shoulder,
For a minute, all the world can wait,
Let go of yesterday,

Fly
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try,
Fly
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

In a moment, everything can change. 




For me, this lyrics very significant for me. Because every bar of this song has a moral for me. Life is like castor, sometime we at above and sometimes we at beneath. Times is gold, every second can changes in a split second. For me, I’ll use my time in a good benefit. Yesterday also can not repeated, what we doing today must do the best as long as we can. Even sometimes we has chance to improve our conviction but some people still can’t use the chance to improve their self. In a moment, everything can change. Depends with way of life apiece. 

Reflection



1.      A false start
-          a failed attempt to begin an activity or event








1.      To jump the gun
-          to do something too soon, especially without thinking carefully about it







1.      A front runner
-          the person or thing thought most likely to win or succeed

For me, I like ‘a front runner’. Because I always want to win even though I know I can’t do it, but at least I have effort to win. For me, it's not only about the talented that is needed but it's all about the effort needed. Because dispense with effort, the talented or anything can’t be a perfect point.

A Picture Worth A Thousand Words- 1st Reflection

A Picture Speaks A Thousand Words
-Do you agree that “a picture worth a thousand words?”

“A picture worth a thousand words” mean a picture that tells a story just as well as a large amount of descriptive text. A picture worth a thousand words refers to the idea that a complex idea can be conveyed with just a single still image. It also aptly characterizes one of the main goals of visualization, namely making it possible to absorb large amounts of data quickly. For me, I will agree for this idiom. As evidence, I can look at all my captured pictures at all circumstance. For me, all of the photos can speak by dint of their distinctive. Photos also can speak about their memories, about feelings, about stories, about love, and about changes. Sometimes when I look back at the pictures that I took I can sense the happiness and the sadness that exist behind it. The pictures will bring back the past memories about my life. Even I captured picture when I sad also can showed at the picture that I’m in the sadness circumstance. Some pictures also can depict the situations, feeling, love, changes and many more. For example : A dying man holding his bestfriend. He lived homeless in Iowa with his dog in a car. When he became terminally ill and placed in hospice, his only request was to hold his dog one last time before passing on. Two souls quietly saying their goodbyes.
