LIVING THE MOMENT
Let's think the baby who is in the first period of his life.Firstly,it is wondered when he will get walking and talking skills.When he walks a little,he is sent to kindergarten or primary school.He finds himself in the marathon test when he is at the end of primary school age.When he starts going to high school,it is wondered whether he passes the university exams or not.When he passes the exams,the arguments about vocational and university preferences start.When he finishes the university,it is expected that he must find a good job.Then,he has to join the army.He is expected to marry and when he marries,he is asked to have a baby.Even if he has a baby,pressures will never finish.
This situation is so common in a large part of society that it causes to forget that the life which we live in belongs to us and we are free about our choices.While we are running through the endless targets with values of the society,neither can we understand values of what we have,nor we can give enough value to our people we like.We postpone our dreams and suppress our longing.When we aware of this situation,we will have come to the end of our life.
We must learn to live without postponing our dreams because tomorrow may be very late to recover time that we lose.
Dear Cansu,
YanıtlaSilYour subject is very strong,common and argumentative.I always wonder why we live for others,especially for our parents.This is our own life and if there is something like free will ,we have to be the ones who decide how to give direction to our lives.I am glad you choose this subject.I understand from your sentences that you can express yourself explicitly.How ever, there are some sentences that are not proper to English use.It would be better if you use active verb at this sentence'it is wondered when he will get walking and talking skills'.It smells Turkish :)Other than that,I really like your content and how you structure your sentences.I wish you could write more journals as powerful as this one.
Hey Cansu,
YanıtlaSilfirst I would like to say "WOW!". I liked your text especially the last parts. It is important that everyone finds out that he/she wants to escape from this pressure. I think because of your text some people will think about their way of life and what they want and what others expect. I liked it!
Sometimes the structure of the sentences seemed different to me; so maybe it helps when you reread it to make sure that there is no Turkish sentence structure.
I would repeat myself when I would give a positive comment again so I only would like to say go on with those topics and don’t be afraid to choose them. Go on like that!
