What person in history you would like to meet?
If I had the opportunity to go back in time, I wish I could have met
Martin Luther King. In my home country, Norway, equality is set as
one of the most important ideals to live by. The kind of society
Martin Luther grew up in seems light-years away from the way we
carry on our lives in Norway, and I think I could have learned a lot
from him. His experiences in life and his achievements are unique
and an opportunity to discover more of the person behind his
thoughts would probably help myself put things in perspective. In
today's modern society people often complain about minor issues.
Little things like if the morning paper arrives late at the door or if
we miss the bus to work can sometimes be enough to put us down.
We forget to appreciate that we are lucky enough to not having to
worry about covering our basic needs from day to day. We are
already free to speak our minds and we have access to democratic
arenas in society. If I were to meet Martin Luther I would like to
discuss how he managed to keep his courage up during hard times
and how he kept his dream alive through the process. Also, from a
marketing perspective, it could be interesting to see how his
charismatic qualities encouraged the people and gathered the
masses. I believe he could teach me an interesting lesson in how to
overcome fear and stick to your dreams even if life gives you some
uphill. I realize that his achievement is out of comprehend with my
goals, but I still believe his philosophy could work for the little man
in the street. I like the thought that if you believe in something and
work hard you can realize your dreams. My dream right now is to be
able to go to New Zealand. I already failed this test once but I am
not prepared to give up. To sum up my discussion, I would choose
to meet Martin Luther because I admire his work to end the apartede
regime. He seems to be a man of great values and I believe I could
learn a lot about life from this man. Life is often based on learning


by doing, but I would not hurt receiving some good advice along the
road.
