Reflective Essay on....What adults can learn from kids

   Hello, ladies and gentlemen bloggers? I am logged into my log AGAIN for my next writing assignment, writing a reflective essay. Today, we were allowed to choose a topic between "spring, summer, fall, winter, and spring" and a TED talk called "What Adults can learn from kids" by a girl named Adora Svitack. Among those both interesting topics, I chose "What Adults Can Learn From Kids" as my reflective essay topic. I think my life and my opinion relates to this video a lot.

 

Adora Svitak, the speaker of "What Adults Can learn from Kids", is a now 14 years old - 12 when she was in TED- blogger who started blogging and posting since she was in her kindergarten age, when she first got her little laptop as a present from her parents. She tells us in her TED presentation that adults need to learn from kids to have an open mind and dreaming things that adults think that are impossible. In other words, adults should learn to make impossible possible.

 

I agree with Miss Svitak's opinion about what adults must learn from kid that they think are too full of hope and dreams. I always feel that most adults have less imagination, hope, dream, and all the other stuff that one needs to have in order to live a happy and interesting life rather than a cold and moody life.

 

There are two reasons why I can look back in my life and agree with Miss Svitak's opinion on adults.

 

First, most adults do not have wonderful and powerful dreams that can bring them up whenever they fail. They are too used to living a dry life, a life that they need to live rather than what they want to live. They DO need more hope to live the world happily enough to bring themselves up in their hardest times.

 

Second, kids dream the future, the hope, and the wishes they have. In kids' dreams, they can be a musketeer, a pilot, a princess, or a wizard. Adults ca't be any of those even in their dreams.

 

Adora Svitak has a good point of adults needing to learn soething from kids in my opinion. I hope a world that adults leaned to dream, wish, and hope for their future came. Here in the bottom, there is the TED I'm talking about. Please enjoy the video, and see you soon!!^^
