~~The Missing Piece Meets the Big O~~

~~The reflecrion of ''The Missing Piece Meets the Big O.''~~

I think this story is telling about how to get along to other people. Some people are used to rely on the other people. They regard that they are not strong enough to live alone. So, they usually seek somebody to protect them. But maybe they will meet lots of people who seemed to be fit them, but actually, they are not. This story uses some simple painting to display the whole meaning.

Maybe sometimes we are very meek, and want to rely on other people. It’s our nature humanity. But when we are get used to rely on other people, we will forget what the dependence is. We should learn to do something by ourselves. We can be the person that can be relied on, not to rely on other people. If will always what to seek for help when we meet some problem, we won’t get the lesson we should learn. By doing so, we will find that we are stronger than that we know about ourselves. The more things we do by ourselves, the better experiences we will get.

~~Teachers just don't understand~~

“Teachers just don't understand” is a story about a woman, who is a teacher, tired for everything. The story begins in a morning. It’s was 5:30 A.M. It’s time to Mrs. Johnson to get up. But owing to she had taking care for her daughter almost all night, she felt too tired to not getting up. But she must get up and go to work. While she had her breakfast, her husband, Mr. Johnson, who worked the night shift at the factory. They discussed for some things and they were all worried about for their daughter, Lu Ann, and Lu Ann's operation. After talked to her husband, she went out to work. After she arrived at the school, she met some things makes her even tired and impatient. And when she asked a student, Ronnie Taylor, to hand out her homework, she said she didn’t do the homework and made some excuses for that. Then Mrs. Johnson was so angry that she told Ronnie to meet the vice-principal. But When Ronnie met Frank and Frank asked what the things going, Ronnie just don’t understand why Mrs. Johnson so angry, and said that teachers sure don't understand.

I like the middle part of the story. Mrs. Johnson said to Mr. Johnson that she didn’t do everything by herself, she just miss her husband. It’s seemed to be that these words net have many meanings, but it’s not true. People do know that if a man is lonely, he won’t feel happy; but if there are someone stays with him, he may feel better. Mrs. Johnson just wants someone can help her to take part in her stress.

This is a funny story says that the teacher sometimes just can’t accept student’s excuses for something; but on the other hand, students sometimes also can’t accept teacher’s response. They have to use more time to know each other to make the life between them more harmony and peace.
