"Foul is Fair and Fair is Foul"

"Foul is Fair and Fair is Foul" was gotten form a Shakespearean Masterpiece Macbeth. That line was said by the three hags. And the whole story revolved in this 'line'.

For me, foul means unpleasant smell but if you dig deeper, it really means 'bad' or 'evil' and fair means 'purity' and 'good'. So for me, "Foul is Fair and Fair is Foul" simply means "Right is Wrong and Wrong is Right".

It is like Macbeth do bad things because for him, what he did was right.

The Twist of Fate

          For me, the climax is when Puck poured the juice onto Lysander's eyelid knowing that   Lysander is the one who's wearing an Athenian clothes. It is because after that incident, things started to change where the conflict is present. And also because that incident was the cause of all the problems that they had. And Puck said that it was all a dream beacuse of what he did which is when he poured the juice onto Lysander's eyelid, he was ashamed of what he did because all the problems appeared after that.

Forgive and Forget

"Forgive and Forget" is the best thing that we should do in order to move on in our lives. We must forgive the people who commit mistakes to us and forget about it.

I recently read a story during our NCAE and there was a quote that was stocked on my mind. "When a friend hurts us, we should write it down the sand, where the winds of forgiveness get in charge of erasing it away, and when something great happens, we should engrave it in the stone of the memory of the heart, where no wind can erase it."

People usually give advices by saying the quote "Forgive and Forget". And I think it is really effective for most of  the people who are soft-hearted.

Academics or Sports?

        We, people needs knowledge in our everyday lives. And we also need sports which include physical development. But wait, which is better? A sport-minded person or an academically excellent person?..


       Just think if we don't have much knowledge about everything, we cannot live happily, right? And if we are not physically fit and healthy due to lack of exercise, it's hard, isn't it? But for me, I'd rather choose to be an academically-excellent person than being a sport-minded person.

 
      How can we live on earth if we don't have the knowledge? How can we apply the thoughts that we learned in sports? How can we get a job? How can we deal or communicate to others? You don't know, do you? It's hard to answer, really.
   But if we are not a sport-minded person, we are WEAK. We will be like a withered plant. We will get diseases easily. It is also hard to live if we are not a sport-minded person.
  

    It's really hard to choose between the two. And we need them both in order to be successful in life and for us to live happily. So, we need to excel when it comes to academics and also when it comes to sports.
