Because reading a book develops my self-help and how to be manage my
life-plan. I would learn to be better person from successful people so that I
could contribute to family and society. Especially, I like to read Biography of
famous people and self-help books.
This time I chose biography of Barack Obama who is President of
America. His father is Kenyan and his mother is
American. At that time it was unusual for black and white to marry. Barack
Obama had a long journey to discover himself. Is he American or Kenyan, also
black or white. Finally, Obama’s journey of discovery had ended by becoming the
first black person being president of America.
What I have learnt that Obama put all his passion into his ambition in
every single minute. Obama did well managed his people and picked the right
time to say something or not to say and most important is that Obama managed
well his plan to be a successful politician. Although Obama had a sort political career until he became a President of
America, basically he was clever and ambitious and he cared about helping people who were
poor or who had difficult lives. Also, he is good listener and
making the point to reach to agreement.
An impressive article was that Obama’s young staff knew how to collect
raising money through the internet. It was more than $278 million for the
campaign, It showed how cleverly and effectively was organized. Also I thought
myself if I have clever and wise staff, it could make a difference. It is very a
important to choose right staffs.
There was regrettable story as well, during
election times, Obama breaked away his old friend pastor Jeremiah Wright
because they had different ideas. (which is what the book says) But I was
thinking, he just chose the president of America rather than being a good
friend. Wright was good pastor and
friend for more than 20years but even though they had a good friendship Obama
decided to stop to contact with this friend, because Wright mentioned about racism
which damaged Obama’s campaign a lot.
Obama was a great speaker, and writer, he wrote a couple of books and
made a lot of money from them. One speech made him became a celebrity of the
USA. Which he said that there is not a black America and a white America and
Latino America and Asian America, there is the United States of America.
I understand that is why Obama mentioned it because, some how he had
been suffering from racism. I also agree with him, but hopefully, he won’t be
too greedy to try to make the world one unity and controled by America.
The diary of young girl Anne Frank
I was really enjoyed this
interesting and sad story book.
On her 13th's birthday in 1942, she received her diary as a present. Since then she told everything what happened to her, how was her feeling, love, hopping for future.. until just before she died. She wrote it during second world war in annex where she hiding.
When I was young I read it in Korean, but I only remembered that it was interesting book.
But this time I absolutely into her story. I asked my-self, who took young girl Anne’s life who was full of dream. She was a ordinary girl, although fearful chatterbox.
There were eight people living together in Annex. Sometime she had a arguments with her mum and a lady who used to lived with Anne whom Anne really hate her. There was romance as well, Peter was only boy in the Annex. Perhaps she had no choice^^
When I was reading the part where it described Anne received kiss on her cheek form Peter, she said that her heart almost pop, even my heart was palpitating too. How pure love was.!
She was arrested 4th of August 1944 by secret police of the Nazis. They took her concentration camp at Bergen-Belsen. She died there early March 1945 by starvation, gastric fever.
She always had dream that God would help them and save. She wanted travel all over the world. Her dream did not come true.
This is her voice, If God lets me live, I will do more than Mother ever did I want my voice to be heard! I will go out into the world and work for all human being!.

I had thought for a while "How precious our lives!"
There is proverb which says that " Today that you have idled away is just tomorrow that the passed away yesterday wished to live".
I definitely recommend you this book, because it’s not only interesting but also easy to read. Even you can read in one day as long as no one disturb you^^
