week 3

What kind of guy you are? There is an emergency job to be done but everyone is sure that “somebody” will do it. Are you always waiting for somebody else to do it?

Few days ago, when I was taking a bus on my way home, one elderly woman got on the bus. The bus was crowded with people that it was hardly to keep one’s balance. Especially for people like her age, it’s really dangerous. If the bus driver braked his car suddenly, the elderly woman may probably get hurt. The other passengers on the seats look around but no one wanted to make any space for her. It seemed that they were sure “somebody” would do it. It ended up that every body blamed somebody when no one else did it.

There are so many choices, if you chose to do nothing; you have to be responsible for yourself. Don’t wait for somebody else to do the things for you, ask what you can do for somebody else.

Marting Luther King

Recently, I read a famous speech by Marting Luther King "I have a Dream." It's really hard for us to imagine taht black people couldn't go to the same school with whites at that time. They even couldn't sit on the same seats. People in that time were all took these rules for granted that whites were highly privileged.

But these so called rules were broken down by the black leader-Marting Luther King. in spite of the difficulities that he had encountered, he won the support from both whites and blacks in the end. He delivered his creed to the public through the nonviolent resistance movement successfully. In 1963, Dr. King was given the Nobel Peace Prize as the reward of his toil and hardship.

However, he was shot and killed by the radical in 1968. Although he was dead, thereis no denying that Marting Luther King was one of the great people in the U.S. He also makes me realized one thing-nothing great can be achieved without enthusiasm.

The Relationship

How do you build your relationship with other people? In "Little Prince", the little prince came across a strange and lonely fox. Then, the fox asked the little prince to feed him. The lonely fox said that through this process, they could become the one for each other. For him, the footstep of little prince just like music that made him feel delighted. The existence of little prince made his life full of sunshine.

Recently, the "Little Prince" has been shot to "The Fox and the Child." At the moment they encounting each other, they know that they need each other. Through the eyecontact with the little girl and the fox, I remembered something I've forgotten before.

At the end of the "Little Prince", the fox told said to the little prince that the only way to see through the reality is to use your mind. The real things can't be seen just by your eyes. To understand one person you are not familiar is not easy. It's not only to build up the relationship, but to dis cover self inner thoughts.
