metaphor

The video functions as a metaphor in a way that it symbolizes the different walks of life. It shows various people and various figures, which emphasize many people from all around the world. It functions as art to express the idea of "walking through life", where the distorted people and faces all symbolize how we, as people, sometimes just let life pass us by and not really take a look at different things and people around us.

What Motivates Me

What motivates me to continue my education would be my mother. I see how she struggles to make ends meet right now and how it is so important for her to see her children make more of themselves and have a better life than she has. I feel very proud of myself when I see my mother's eyes smile because of an A I received. She motivates me to do my best. Besides my mother being my motivation, I motivate myself to be the best that I can be and learn not just about the world and the people around me, but about myself as well.
