Tomorrow, when the war began.

                           Whenever I read my history book and encounter topics about war, I would think to myself "Wow, thank God THAT didn't happen to me!" or "This happened sssooooo long ago. This ain't gonna happen again!" However, WHAT IF IT DOES?! This has been the question that has been lingering on my mind for so long. Given the fact that we have improved technology... What would our generation do? Some Kids and young adults think that we're not that important in society
                           
                        Some think that we're irrelevant. But what if we were given the chance to make a change? Especially if something bad happened and if we were the only ones left? These questions of mine were answered by this awesome and cool movie called "Tomorrow, when the war began." It showed the different types of personalities with teenagers nowadays (that usually clashes), however it also presented a way to make these people get along.

                        Courage. Leadership. Strength. Wisdom. Sacrifice. (etc) These were only some of the values that I learned from this movie. It really made me wonder: "What if..."

BTW: this movie is based on a book. IT's called "The Tomorrow" series. Written by John Marsden (It's really good.) This movie highly-acclaimed in Australia.

Isn't it funny?

When we're doing nothing, Time stops. When it seems like our mind runs a thousand miles, Time seems to fly. When we do something good, no one really notices. When we do something disastrous, there will surely be a chain of events because of what we did.

These thoughts of mine led me to think about this song entitled "If I die young" by The Band Perry. Some lines really do show how Ironic life really is.

"A penny for your thoughts, Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
They"re worth so much more, after I'm a goner
and maybe then you"ll hear the words I've been singing,
Funny when you"re dead, how people start listening"

This is a verse from the song that really struck. When we need to say something, say it now. You"ll never know when you'll get the chance to do the same thing again.
