Understand Old One by Oodgeroo Noonuccal

What if you came back now
To our new world, the city roaring
There on the old peaceful camping place
Of your red fires along the quiet water,
How you would wonder
At towering stone gunyas high in air
Immense, incredible;
Planes in the sky over, swarms of cars
Like things frantic in flight.

 Analysis

Understand Old One is a short poem by Oodgeroo Noonuccal about how if an Aboriginals ancestors came back they would be very shocked to see that their beautiful land that they had looked after their whole lives is now full of buildings, and cars. This gives the reader a sence of guilt because the white men took over their land and destroyed it from its natural state. It bring the reader to the realiseation that the whit men have destroyed our natural environment are replaced it with material objects rather then the beauty it once was.

Journal Entry 8 – A look at Parables

1.) Read the following parables and identify the inspiring quality that Jesus is trying to teach us.

The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant

I think Jesus is trying to teach us to forgive like the King forgave that servant and to forgive for something you would want to be forgiven for.
The Parable of the Persistent Widow

I think Jesus is trying to tell us that we should forgive from the heart and not just say you forgive them but really mean it.
The Parable of the Rich Young Man

The hyperlink did not work and i could not find the parable on a search engine

The beatitudes are eight statements taught by Jesus to explain how you should live your life.
