 Time, which is with us all the time, exerts much influence on the world. Even if little things happened in the past, its power gets stronger. In this story, it shows the power of time very well. ‘Butterfly effect’, which is the theme of it, means that just one small change can make big difference afterward. So, from this, I could think that all my life is made of lots of small changes I did. Just one tiny choice I made in my past makes my current time. If I did not choose to study for going KMLA three years ago, I might be living entirely different life from now. I might go to a regular high school and did not have chance to study in KMLA wearing Hanbok in Hanok. Like this, the present relates to the past. Also, I thought we can get some clue to make better future through it. The past relates to the present, the present relates to the future. I could make promise myself that I will live making every effort all the time. It motivated me to live in the moment. I want not to miss even just one small butterfly. (198 words)
