Very good for your first attempt. You need a lot of practice. Your ideas are relevant, but a little bit of logical connection in an idea, as well as between ideas, is required. Keep posting.



You have explained the lemons of the society but not the way to make lemonade out of them. Even if you talk about it in the middle of your essay of in between paragraphs, your outline must reflect it in some of its points. This key aspect is missing in your outline. [/QUOTE]

Success is to be measured by not so much by the position that one reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome. (Booker T. Washington)
Life is a challenge as well as blessing. It throws at us lemons so we can taste the sweetness of lemonade. It is up to us whether we just sit idle and allow ourselves to be drowned into the ocean of lemons or buckle up ourselves, fight back, use these lemons and make lemonade. Every day we see hundreds of examples around us like racism, inequality, social discrimination, biased hatred. Some accept that as fate and do nothing, others stand up and fight back. It is about attitude towards life. It is about way of thinking towards one own self. Our whole history is teem with examples where whole society became bereft of mobilization, still and buried under the pile of lemons, that were actually thrown at them to bless them with the sweetness of lemonade. However, then, from among them, one deny to be like them. He resisted, rose up from that pile and paves way for others to follow him thereby getting the secret of those lemons and recipe of making lemonade. Then life became benevolent for him. Therefore, the rule to succeed in life is very simple: be optimistic. Try to capture every opportunity presented by life in form and make the best of it. Where others fails to acknowledge the power of thinking out of the box, step forward and set example. Life will never stop throwing lemons at us, we have to decide whether to be like failed society or be a hero.
