I love metaphorical expression.
Those writing that sentences are so creative. It's beyond me. If you want to make one, it requires so much thinking because it should be a slice of life, from your and our experiences!
Why? because it make it easy for readers to understand, feeling sharing your life.
Anyway, I'm not qualified to talk of making one. I'm not educated for that.
So, I've got some of them. I'd be happy if you read them, which I'm gonna introduce with my personal comment, and appreciated them.
1: Life is like a bagel. It's delicious when it's fresh and warm, but often it's just hard. the hole in the middle is its great mystery, and yet it wouldn't be a bagel without it.
Me: This is first one. Very nice one, and Interesting is it's up to you to find and decide what the hole is.
2:Life is like eating grapefruit. First, you have to break trough the skin; then it takes a couple of bites to get used to the taste, and just as you begin to enjoy it, it squirts you in the eye.
me: it remind me of my first try to get a girl friend.
3: Life is like a banana. you start out green and get soft and mushy with age. Some people want to be one of the bunch while others want to be top banana. You have to take care not to to slip on externals. And, finally, you have to strip off the outer coating to get at the meat.
me; Is this good? I'm afraid not.
4: life is like cooking. It all depends on what you add and how you mix it. Sometimes you follow the recipe and at other times, you're creating.
me; I like it. Seems that it attributes all things in life to you. My belief is life is mostly subject to internal factor.
5: Life is like a jigsaw puzzle but you don't have the picture on the front of the box to know what it's supposed to look like. Sometimes, you're not even sure if you have all of the pieces.
me; I love the last sentence. Some of us have all. the others unfortunately not. Life is UNFAIR.
6:Life is like unassembled abacus. It's what you make of that counts.
Me; you can make anything you can, maximizing your given materials.
7: Life is like new product development. Market research is the decision by the parents to have children. Product conceptualization is conception. Development of prototype is birth. Debugging of prototype is learning. successful sales is working. Product maturation is retirement. And product obsolescence is death.
me; Well, so many younger generations don't work. My parents failed at the step of debugging of prototype or somewhere else.
8; Life is like a maze in which you try to avoid the exit.
me; It's simple and nice. but,let me say, we cannot go backward and try another way when we find ourself heading for a dead end.
9; Life is like riding an elevator. It has a lot of ups and downs and some one is always pushing your buttons. Sometimes you get the shaft, but what really bother you are jerks.
me: not really. we don't have a floor top which you have to stop at.
10: Life is like a poker game. you deal or are dealt to. it include skills and luck. you bet, check, bluff, and raise. You learn from those you play with. Sometimes, you win with a pair or you lose with a full house. But whatever happens, It's best to keep on shuffling along.
Me; This is what i'm looking for. If you feel pretty confident about your cards, in one certain situation, you might lose to unexpected prayer. It's most all about luck. but you have still chance and power to make it better. I love it.
11: Life is like a room full of open doors which close as you get older.
me; Good one. I have many choices for final destination for my life. There is no correct choice, but you know, it's closing.
That's all. All of them are stuffs that my teacher told us. Was it interesting?
