"Tip of the Iceberg" - another school assignment :)

I was looking online yesterday at some pictures. For some reason I typed in icebergs, and it amazes me to how massive they are when in person all you see is a little portion of the top of it! Then I began to think about what in life relates to icebergs? I figured out pretty quick that it wasn't what was in my life that relates to it, but it is is my life! When I really thought about it, there's a lot out there that you don't know. So it likes looking at the "tip of the iceberg" and not seeing the entire iceberg. You think you may know everything about someone one day, and the next day they are a complete stranger to you. You only knew the their "tip of the iceberg". That even happens with family. You may think you know everything about your grandparents, but in reality you don't. You'll uncover more of their life or "tip of the iceberg" as I know phrase it. Every day you will reveal more of someone's iceberg or even your own. You never realize that until you see the full picture. So when I think about my life, I think of it as I'm only seeing the "tip of the iceberg". I don't know everything there is to know. There's so much out there for me. Someday in the future, I'll discover more of my iceberg. I'll learn what I need to learn in my senior year, my college years, and whatever career I choose to go into. I'll discover who my own family will have: my husband, how many children I'll have, and who knows, maybe even grandchildren. Someday I will be where I want to be, but right now I'm happy with my "tip of the iceberg".

  1. This blog really made me think. And what you are saying is completely true! The way we view people is just like an iceberg. You see what you see and think what you think, but really underneath it all, there is sooo much more to each and every one of us! Myself included. There is so much people dont know about me, heck there is so much i dont know about me. But some day, just like you said, i hope i will uncover a lot more of me, or more than "the tipe of the iceberg". I really enjoyed this post Bella Rae.
