Nowadays, it is hard to know what exactly the "truth" is. Sometimes due to our believes and emotions, we tend to deny what is exactly the truth and correct. The truth is the most simple thing. It will set us free, even though it can lead into some sort of trouble, but just asserting the truth will feel as if you did something good. I believe that either way, whether it take a long time or not, the truth of something will come out. We can't always reject the truth, when there's going to be facts. Truth always wins at the end of the day.
For me, truth is the only chance for any of us to have a truly fulfilling life. Truth can lead us to have peace from all the doubt we had within us. Sometimes it will be hurtful. Nowadays, as I said before, in this time especially we can't encounter what is the truth or not. We need to comprehend the information that is given to us. We need to be alerted what is false and what is correct. The truth is an important character, especially during this time period.

In Malcom X statement, I couldn't agree more with him. What he is trying to say is that people make their workers, other people, do their job for them just because of the judgement and opinions of others. We can't just make other people do our matters just because we're being judged. In life, not everyone will be loved or cherished, there will always be some kind of dislike.
Going through life being scared on what to do because we are afraid of what other may think, is not a good way to live. We can't, as humans, always amuse everyone. Sometimes we have to take risks and do what we believe in no matter what other people's thoughts and opinions will say. As long as you know you are doing something that feels right and doing it for yourself, that is all that counts.

What I saw in the image that was displayed, was seeing a man in the military playing in the Piano. What the image spoke to me was that in this world that we live in there is many fighting than compromising. The piano, in my opinion, was a symbolic feature of peace and calmness. The man playing the piano illustrates how even though many disastrous aspects occurs, there can always be peace.
