Blog Assignment #2

This week's writing assignment refer to the poem "If" by Rudyard Kipling which we studied in class.

1. Do you agree with Kipling's message in this poem? Why or why not? Identify which of Kipling's statements is the most meaningful to you and explain why. Is Kipling's advice useful for people today? Why or why not?

Yes, I do. Because he gives some people good advice. Like be patient;don't let your dream control your life in an unrealistic manner; if you lose everything you don not quit,you should continue to try...

Yes, it is. Today many people just think of how to make much money, they did not care how to be a real man ,a good man. They spent too much time to make money, but no time to educat their children. This poem can wake up more vacant people.

I agree his view. Because life include a lot of things. Making money just one of many things. We can make friends, study, do interesting game, sport...If you are a father or mother, you have a very important thing -- educat your children!!!When you older, you have more knowledge of experience, you must want to tell your children about these. So, why not? Tell them, they will get better than yourself. In a long life, we will happen some trouble things. This pome tell us many right views, you can learn positive mind-set from it.
