Reflection on my friend's blog; Hazelyn

Reflection on my friend’s blog.

By looking at my friend’s blog, Hazelyn on the topic of Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex, I am really agreed with her opinion about life is ironic. This is because even in real life we cannot run away from our fate. If you are been tried to run away from your fate, then more closely you are with your fate. In other words, if you are fated either to do something you like it or not, you are supposed to do it; you cannot run away from fate. That is what meant by ironic of life. For instance, in a play of Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex, even Laius and Oedipus tend to run away from their fates; finally, they have to accept those fates as their parts of life. Whatever you do in order to get rid of the fate, you are disable to do it since we are only a human being. God proposes man disposes.
