Then, when it was read backwards, I thought that this is what our generation needs to do.

A statement the stuck out to me was when it said that "Happiness comes from within" is a lie reading it forward. It made a lot more sense when at was read backwards]]> 2020-08-20 18:22:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690091354 First reaction and Favorite Statement 86saradesh1 https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690092088 I found the whole reversible poem really cool, especially since these statements made sense even when being read backwards. At first it was really depressing and a bit confusing but once you got the hang of the topic you could make sense of what was going on. Then when it reversed it was so cool to think that these were the same words you had just heard or read. I really liked the line about the environment and our generation being hopeful. That was a just a really strong line that made an impact more when it was read backwards.

In the future
Environmental destruction will be the norm
No longer can it be said that
My peers and I care about this earth
It will be evident that
My generation is apathetic and lethargic
It is foolish to presume that
There is hope.]]> 2020-08-20 18:22:50 UTC https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690092088 My first reaction 70chrijohn1 https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690092179 to the poem was confusion then when i saw the line ""Happiness comes from within" is a lie" i had a face reality moment which really set the mood of the poem and it really stood out that way]]> 2020-08-20 18:22:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690092179 My first reaction for the video I was very confused on what was going on but then when she said something backwards then she started reading it backwards I got a better understanding of the poem a specific statement that stood out to me was when she said " Family is more important than work" caught me by surprise but then she read backwards so then it made sense to me. 15saiddaga1 https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690092683 2020-08-20 18:23:01 UTC https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690092683 73esthchap1 https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690092691 My first reaction was surprise that you could understand when it went backward.

The line that stuck out to me the most was "Environmental destruction will be the norm" because it is very relevant and serious right now. 22jolivale3 https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690093213 2020-08-20 18:23:10 UTC https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690093213 my favorite part was when the narrator said unless we reverse it and then the poem started reversing and it was all hopeful and it ended well 33benjkapl1 https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690093324 2020-08-20 18:23:12 UTC https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690093324 45farramst2 https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690093345 My first reaction was that it was a really upsetting poem, but when we read it backwards, it was very powerful.

The very first line, "I am part of a lost generation and I refuse to believe I can change the world." was the one that stood out the most to me. 71kabebaum1 https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690093793 2020-08-20 18:23:20 UTC https://padlet.com/cfetters2/5thperiod/wish/690093793 my first reaction was that it was sad and depressing.

But when I read the last line, "And all of this will come true unless we choose to reverse it."
