My Meaning / Understanding

Be The Change You Widh To Be
reference to Gandhi quote "be the change you wish to see in the world"

i relate to this because i like to help things on the road to change.
and i will always be positive about the changes i want to make

"we slave on just to get by"
i think that this is alot of people now they just try and get around of the work or not do it at all
im one of them not going to lie :]

"all i wish for is eternal tranquility"
i like the idea of peace but i dont think that the people of the world are capable


pt.2

Connect to the poem

I connect to the poem mostly from the title. "Be the change you wish to see"
I want to see change, so im going to have to be the start to the change i want to get.
also the "we slave on just to get by" This ties into the first part beacuse if i want change
I'll have to work for it. And that means to stop being lazy -_-.

Song that relates
NOW by; Paramore
This song says that if there is a future for everyone to come together we want it now.
and also that we need to."Wish I could find a crystal ball,For the days I feel completely worthless"
this can connect to the part with the "we slave on" because maybe you feel worthless sometimes but you have to find a way around or to deal with that feeling.And the Beginning she says "There's a time and a place to die and this ain't it" which could connect to the last line of the poem, or it can be put with the "restless yawns and sighs of the pawns who are first to die".
plus the whole video of the Army Vs. the Rebels can be this"big brother"(gov't) vs. you.

  1. Alex... Your video choice is awesome. I don't know if you missed how many ways it connects to the poem or if you just can't express them in your post. I want you to watch the video again and try to remember some of the stuff we talked about. Rebellion, futuristic impressions, passive aggression... So much we could talk about here. :)
