When Rabindranath Tagore, a nobel prize winning poet, stated, “You can’t cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.” I thought it had a lot to do with extreme sports because it's saying that you can't accomplish your dreams by just waiting for it to come to you. You have to go and earn it yourself. It relates to some of the Everest Climbers because they had to train for years and wait for weeks before they can move up the summit. It shows that they are working hard to accomplish their

The theme of all of these Poems/Ted Talks is Communities designs are different, but focus on the things that they may need. In the human family, it states that “some of us are serious, some of us thrive on comedy.” I think that this could mean that some community's may be serious, some may be serious, but they are focusing on the things that their community needs.

He has such a strong obsession for this woman’s
