That's life by Frank Sinatra

c'est la vie

That's life, that's what all the people say
You're ridin' high in April, shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June

I said that's life, and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'cause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life, I tell you I can't deny it
I thought of quitting, baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life, that's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart just won't buy it
But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die

How is the Internet changing society?

There is no question that the internet is an influential and ubiquitous part of modern life, It´s affect on society has both positive and negative dimensions.

On the one hand, personal communication has radically changed as result of the internet. Fcebook, Twiter and Skype and other kinds of social network media have become indispensible part of individual life. Thanks to this innovation, people are enabled exchange information, news, ideas with each others. Furthermore, in the realm of education, people have got more chances to access education than ever before. Using their fingers, clicking their mouse, along with the powerful internet, distance learning has not geographically barriers. More specifically, people can acquire knowledge through virtually sitting in on lectures from around the world.Additionally, the economical and business influence of the internet applications is growing at a phenomenal speed.

Seen from another angle, with the development of an increasingly internet, there are some potential risks which should not be overlooked. Taking the explosion of information for example, online news or information is easy to be manipulated. Therefore, people might be subject in an overwhelming amount of misinformation unconsciously. Moreover, with little or no restriction on internet, some of un-appropriate material might negatively influence society.

Life learning is a necessary part of modern society.

Definition –lifelong learning (LLL) is all learning activity undertaken throughout life, whether formal or in formal.

In the hustle and bustle of modern life, more and more people are working hard and studying constantly in order to keep up. So, there is no doubt that lifelong learning plays integrated part in our lives. I hold this belief for the following.

First and foremost, with advances in technology and health care people have a longer life expectancy than a few decades ago. Thanks to this factor, people have more chance to develop their career in different directions. Hence, lifelong learning can assist then to open more doors of opportunity as their career progresses.

Additionally, the forces of globalization are driving people to compete aggressively not only with other local employees but with those in other countries. For instance, up-to date technologies now enable many tasks to be outsourced to be cheapest supplier, which are causing people to respond to constant change, they need to learn new skills and upgrade themselves for the sake of saving a job. Furthermore, there is no lifelong employment, as employees change jobs often, and also highly skilled newcomers will threaten older employees who do not pass the necessary skills. Therefore, keeping learning is needed for all individuals.

Hello by Lionel Richie

Hello by Lionel Richie-1984

Ive been alone with you
Inside my mind
And in my dreams Ive kissed your lips
A thousand times
I sometimes see you
Pass outside my door
Hello!
Is it me youre looking for?
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile
Youre all Ive ever wanted
And my arms are open wide
Because you know just what to say
And you know just what to do
And I want to tell you so much
I love you

I long to see the sunlight in your hair
And tell you time and time again
How much I care
Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow
Hello!
Ive just got to let you know
Because I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely?
Or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I havent got a clue
But let me start by saying I love you
