Foul is Fair and Fair is Foul

          "Foul is Fair and Fair is Foul" is one of the lines that were stated in the story: Macbeth. This quote was said by the three hags at the beginning.
          For me, this means that sometimes, wrong things becomes right. This is the perception of others in committing sins. They think that what they are doing is just right. We sometimes continue it because we think that no one will be affected and everything is fine.
          Fair is foul for me is when the right things become wrong. We sometimes make right things but end up making mistakes. Sometimes, we make right decisions but after considering others suggestions, we can make it wrong. This also happens when we are on the side of the right but we are considered weird or wrong.
          For me, this is my vision in this quote. Maybe this is not the three hags says so I still want to understand it deeper.

Where all Started....

          A Midsummer Night's Dream is a good novel written by Shakespeare. It is fun to read because its genre is comedy.
          For me, The climax is when Puck made a mistake in putting the juice to the eyelid of Demetrius. He instead placed it to Lysander who wore an Athenian dress also. This happened and the love of Lysander for Hermia was lost. All things changed and its caused a big trouble. Without the mistake of Puck, there will be no story that will take place. But, it is also thank to Puck that Demetrius and Helena fell for each other.

Forgive and Forget?

          As a person, all of us can make mistakes. We are not normal if we don't commit mistakes. In the story "The Tempest", the line "Forgive and Forget" is being discussed. Do you believe in this?
          I also commit mistakes to people and I say sorry to them. But there are times that the mistakes of our companions are too hard to forgive. Others say that we should just forget it and start a new life. But what if the mistake is too hard to forget? there are many questions to be asked according this topic.
          For me, We should try to forgive the person first. In the bible, there's a verse that says "For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.  But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.'  If we forgive them already, now is the time to forget that mistake and start a new life

AcaThletics~

          Being an academically-minded person and a sports-minded person is really a good thing. But, if you only focused on one thing, there will be advantages and disadvantages too. 

          When you are sports-minded, there are advantages. You can have a strong and healthy body because you practice and play much. Your body can have a great resistance to diseases. The next advantage is when you do sports, you have some teammates and you can work as one. Here, you will gain teamwork. 
         
          When you are academically-minded, there are advantages also. First of all, your grades will be high and you can top in class.  You will not have a difficulty when there's exams and quizzes. You can also gain friends by going with them and sharing your knowledge.
          Both characteristics can make your self-confidence high. When you go to contest like quiz bees or Sports meet, you can make your school proud by winning and that can make your self-esteem high. Both characteristics can also discipline you in every way. 
          But there are still disadvantages when you only choose one between the two. If you are sports-minded only, you should have knowledge so that you know the rules in every game. And when you are only Academically-minded, you will have a weak body because you don't put what you learn into practice.
         I am not a sports-minded person but I really like to learn and master even one sport. It's really hard to choose between the two because they are connected to each other. But if I really have to choose, I will choose being an academically-minded person so that even though I don't know how to dribble that ball, spike and smash it, I can still make my family proud with the medals that I will have.

Prayer for the Victims

Almighty God who he helped us in every trouble
I'm here to thank you for all the things that you've done
For protecting, caring and giving us our needs
Thank you for keeping us safe during Maring

Lord, please take care of the victims of the typhoon
Whose houses had been broken because of the rain,
Please continue to guide them and supply their needs
So that they will be at peace and not wait in vain

Please give them shelter, so that they will not be cold
Food and clean water for the kids and the elders
May you bless those people who tried to give something
And keep them safe whenever the rain comes again

Lord, please give us some courage and strength, to help people
May this little prayer reach and help in a way
Oh Lord, please give them hope so that they can move on
To the tragedy that they have all experienced

Lord, may these prayer reach you and bless those people
Who helped even in small ways like this little prayer
Sorry because we are the cause of all of these
In him, through him, In the name of the Lord, Amen.
