I don't really know.]]> 2021-05-04 13:06:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489422536 https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489431649 It means, don´t stop doing something, or pass up the chance of doing something, for the small chance of failing or something going wrong. Every night you could get nightmares, but that doesn´t stop you from sleeping.]]> 2021-05-04 13:08:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489431649 https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489460565 I THINK it means that when people sleep sometimes they have nightmares, but they try to overcome the nightmares by sleeping through it. Different things can scare different people. That's why other people you don't have the same nightmares , so if someone not afraid of something that someone else isn't afraid of they should help that person overcome their fear by telling them what makes you brave. This happened to me before when I had to choose one of my family members, I got so scared I woke up. Then I realized i was a dream and went back to being a brave person. ]]> 2021-05-04 13:14:44 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489460565 hgreen48 https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489477756 It means that you have to be brave no matter the situation. If you exclude sleeping from something you do daily because you are afraid of what MIGHT come into your head. But not sleeping is unhealthy and you will see that once you do you will actually be better. ]]> 2021-05-04 13:18:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489477756 dwolpov https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489514824 This proverb means that people don't stop to do what they are doing, just because it's a risk. For instance flying a plane for the first time with the risk of crashing. It also means that the people there never give up.]]> 2021-05-04 13:25:24 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489514824 https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489517781 I think it means even though there might be something difficult you have to overcome you have to get through it. You can't just not sleep because your afraid you will have a nightmare. You have to get through it and be brave. It doesn't matter is you are taking a test, you can't not take the test because you are afraid you will fail. ]]> 2021-05-04 13:26:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489517781 https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489518075 I just agree with Aleena. I can't think of how to reword it. I sometimes try to keep my eyes open because every night I some how think of something that scares me and I try not to fall a sleep. However a lot of times in like a sport. when it's a relay race and there are teams. I don't like to go first in case I do the race wrong.]]> 2021-05-04 13:26:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489518075 https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489521878 I think it means even though something may be hard you have to try your best to do it.  One time during my tabla (Hand rums) we were at a festival and I was on a team with all girls and we had to perform in front of hundreds of people.]]> 2021-05-04 13:26:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489521878 ssingh157 https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489529380 I think that One doesn’t forego sleeping because of the possibility of nightmares, means that don't let anything stop you from doing anything.]]> 2021-05-04 13:28:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489529380 https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489530088 I think it means to never give up.]]> 2021-05-04 13:28:26 UTC https://padlet.com/mcallari1/2vfy0k6h06vlrq0o/wish/1489530088
