The Little Prince


Little Prince, one little naive boy who get lost in the universe looking for the answer for his questionable thought about the meaning of word "LOVE" and "GROWN UP". this little boy resemble the image of purity, innocent and simplicity while also showing us about the image of truth and happiness. this little boy has a really strong role in this story because the main message is tells from this little boy image. his journey trough much different planet show us about the different type of "grown up" people. people that being possessed by something that little prince think was not important. about money, live problem, pride, fame, etc.


the main message that i like from this story is about how little prince see the world trough his eyes, purity that makes adult people problem became nonsense. little prince try to understand the way adult people think and and however he try, he could not understand that. it makes me realize that as a human, when we grown up, sometime we make everything to complicated. this complicity makes our mind out of logic and no not care about tolerate and kindness, because we stuck with the rule and law that come from our self.


Little prince also trying to understand the meaning of "LOVE". he trying to understand this "LOVE" thing from his relation with the Rose in his planet. the problem is, Love was to complicated for little prince. little prince could not understand indirectly word from rose and end up being confused and sad for not able to satisfy Rose request.
but the truth is, the only request that Rose ask is about little prince care and appearance. but because Rose has a very big pride that hold her to tell the little prince about her true feeling, little prince end up with leaving her alone and at the end the rose was get eaten by the sheep.
little prince shown us that sometimes in Loving our mates, we being to prestige in our self. this prestige makes our relation became ruined for stooping us to tell the truth to our partner. the truth that will killed our prestige, but maybe will survive our "Love".



in this story, i think that the writer try to tell us that however we being grown up, sometimes we have to rethink as a little kids again. think when we don't really mind about money, about position, about discrimination and pride. think when we being able to tolerate anything with our heart and not our mind. And when we being able to do this, our live could became more peacefull. This thing also happenend to our “Love” story. We should use our heart not our head. Sometimes, being childish wasn’t that bad, because we will never think negative about anybody or even about our self. we don't matter those thing and just live our live as our self.
