We're a Band!

We're a Band
by Audio Adrenaline


Freak! Is what the world calls me
They don't understand
so they try to stop me
Hide! I can't hide
so I stand up straight with Christ by my side
No no no no need to be tongue tied
so I say it loud and I say it with pride
Died He died
Christ gave it all
but He's coming back to life
Now I've got a reason to saying the things I say
and you know I've gotta reasons to be doing the things I do
Because soon very soon
God's coming back and I want to be playing His tune
So, here we go
[CHORUS]


We're a band
We're a band
With guitars in our hands
we're crossing the land
We're a band
We're a band
For the Son of man
we will take a stand
You can make a plan
He'll be back again
We're a band
We're a band
We're a band
We're a band
Hey! Please remove your hand from my mouth
it's been long enough so
please do it now
uuh uuh uuh uuh uuh uuh uuh
you know you can't censor me
When wall flowers start to bloom
four more voices fill the room
Say, you better get out of the way


[REPEAT CHORUS]

This song has become really important for our generation since we heard it many times during our childhood. Now, we can feel more identified with the message it sends, as we need to work together to achieve our goals and follow our path in religion.

Confucianism & The Analects

Confucianism

Is a Chinese ethical and philosophical system developed from the teachings of the Chinese philosopher Confucius.
It focuses on human morality and wrong action. It is a complex system of moral, social, political, philosophical, and quasi-religious thought that has had tremendous influence on the culture and history of East Asia. It might be considered a state religion of some East Asian countries, because of governmental promotion of Confucian values.


The Analects

I found this very interesting because shows because it teach us how to be happy and how to accomplished peace in our hearts and in our society. My favourite teaching that I found in the Analects is “In teaching, there should be no distinction of classes.” I liked this because; here it says that education should be for everyone. As a Guatemalan I get very identified with this because here in Guatemala, not everyone receives education, and I think that if we want a better country the government should support the education for all the people.

Panchatantra

Panchatantra is a fable that tells the story of a cruel lion named Numskull and a clever rabbit. The animals in the forest make a plan to stop the lion from killing them. When is the rabbit’s turn to go with the lion, he plans the king’s death.

This story has a big moral to life; it teaches us that we can do things better if we think more instead of recklessly acting.
In life you have to be like the rabbit, to make the best decisions for your future, and avoid acting like the lion, or you won’t achieve any goal and you will live without friends.
So you need to think wisely and make the best decisions for you.

The main morals of the reading are that you have to be humble and not selfish, to show solidarity and to work with your group to achieve your team goals.

You can relate this fable to real life because in life you need to be like the rabbit to be a successful person.
