Fire

"It's like fire. It can either heat your house or burn it." I heard this quote being said in the movie we watched in class about advertising. It stood out to me which is really odd considering other people might have not even realized it was said. I believe this not only applies to the advertisement industry but also other situations. Having an extreme of one thing could never be good, such as the case with fire. Too much socializing? Leads to lack of commitment towards education and school. Too much effort spent on studying and no socializing? No friends, no support system, no memories, and definitely not living life to its fullest. I will always have that quote in the back of my head because I am currently learning more about myself each day and have the tendency to either lean to one extreme or the other (listed above). In high school, I want to begin to understand my place in this world and the quote said in the movie will assist me and many other high schoolers.
