In what ways is kite flying similar to war?

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The first thing I would think about is the flag of surrender. A kite could represent that white flag waving, as a sign of defeat and loss.

A kite can be incontrollable and is hard to predict, as is war.

An important aspect of a theme is that it is "universal" which means it can be applied beyond the story itself. Compare and cont

Alenkasestr [34]

The story “Mercury and the Workmen,” a famous Greek fable, deals with the topic of honesty. In the story, the honest man is rewarded, and the dishonest one punished, highlighting the importance of honesty and the benefits it can bring. This theme is universal, as honesty is appreciated everywhere in the world. This moral therefore is relevant for a wide range of stories and situations beyond the Greek story itself.

Another famous story that gives a lesson on the importance of honesty is “The Necklace” by Guy de Maupassant. There are several similarities between both stories. In both cases, dishonesty is punished, and the dishonest characters end up worse than they would have been if they had not attempted to tell a lie. However, they are different in that in the Greek story, it is Mercury who punishes the liar, while in the French story the consequences are brought about by fate. Also, the motivation to lie in the first story is greed, while in the second one it is a desire for recognition and status. Both stories are good examples of this universal theme.

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

I see what's happening here

You're face to face with greatness

And it's strange

You don't even know how you feel

It's adorable

It's nice to see that humans never change

Open your eyes, let's begin

Yes it's really me, breathe it in

I know it's a lot, the hair, the bod

When you're staring at a demigod

So what can I say except

You're welcome

For the tide, the sun, the sky

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

I'm just an ordinary demiguy

What can I say except

You're welcome

For the tide, the sun, the sky

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

I'm just an ordinary demiguy

Honestly, I can go on and on

I could explain every natural phenomenon

The tide, the grass, the ground

Oh, that was me I was messing around

I killed a snake, I buried its guts

Sprouted a tree, now you've got coconuts

What's the lesson?

What is the takeaway?

Don't mess with Maui when he's on a breakaway

And the tapestry here in my skin

Is a map of the victories I win

Look where I've been, I make everything happen

Look at that mean mini Maui just tikkity tappin'

Singing and scratchin'

Flipping and snappin'

People are clappin', hearing me rappin'

And bring the chorus back in

Well anyway, let me say you're welcome

For the wonderful world you know

Hey, it's okay, it's okay

You're welcome

Well, come to think of it, I gotta go

Hey, it's your day to say

You're welcome

'Cause I'm gonna need that boat

I'm sailing away, away

You're welcome

'Cause Maui's the ultimate guy

You're welcome!
