“Laugh and Be Merry” by John Masefield explains the main idea that C. Life is short; laugh and be merry.
The poem insists that the song of merry and laughter makes the world a better place. Such happiness helps in eradicating the sadness and negativity of the world. Further, it insists that the world becomes a better place when justice is served to those who did wrong, <em>“Better the world with a blow in the teeth of a wrong.”</em>

1984, by George Orwell is a perfect example that makes us reflect on what powerful and socialist governments do to stay in the power and to wipe out whoever that stands on the way.
The book mentions the history of Winston who lives in a country where the big brother watches everybody. Even inside of their houses, they are being observed all the time. People from that place teach their children to love the big brother and to hate the ones who are against the government. On the way, Winston meets Julia and later on they fell in love. They love each other in secret because that regime doesn’t allow romantic love among the citizens. With time, they decide to join the rebels who oppose the big brother; however, later on they are betrayed. They are sent to prison and tortured. At the end, they are not killed but they are shown that no one can oppose the big brother.
It is really sad that in many countries in this century many governments do not respect democracy and they torture and kill people.
