[Waterfall] Poem
Waterfall is like a quiet rhythm that flows on a quiet railroad. It does not complain which way it flows. It just flows. The beautiful colour of water falls on the ground, it looks as if one angel is blessing the ground. It's beautiful, and I would want to go inside there and never go out. Yes, it is waterfall.

An article related to the theme of "The Pearl"
From CNN.

A lottery win so you never work again
From the news article: "Answers ranged from £1m to £5m, with an average of £2.2m, but a fair sprinkling said they would continue in their jobs even if they won the jackpot.
"The more you work, the more you keep young," says the man behind the till in one hardware store. "And money never gives you happiness."
It is not a sentiment the winning Magnificent Seven from Liverpool seem to agree with.
In the words of one of them, 28-year-old James Bennett: "The best thing is knowing I can now support my children for the rest of their lives - there is simply no better feeling than that.""
So they said that even though you win the lottery, you will never gain the true happiness by having lots of money. It meant nothing but a greed and evil happiness.
The true love comes by taking care of our child by using that money and donating the money for the charity and that's the true happiness.

My Reflection about 'The Pearl'
“If this story is a parable, perhaps everyone takes his own meaning from it and reads his own life into it. In any case, they say in the town...”
My Reflection about 'The Pearl'
'The Pearl' is a novel, a short novel, describing the typical depravity, existing in every human's mind. This shows a gradual change of one man's mind, becoming depraved. The story is taking in La Paz, Mexico. So it gives basic idea about how poor or how rich they are. And as obviously, Kino, the main character, he's family is poor and lives in a brush house. And one day, he finds the origin of evil, the origin of depravity in human's mind, the pearl. And therefore, after Kino finds the pearl, all these bad things happened to him, he threw the pearl away for regretting what he had done to everyone and for himself. I think author is trying to distinctively implant on us, that money can bring bad luck, and evil. Lastly, the author was trying to make us decide carefully on what to do at every important problems.
