Reflection on the reality of human life

The poem entitled ‘As You Like It’ by William Shakespeare is the reference of the discussion in class. By looking at the meaning of the poem, I found that this poem actually talking about the circulation of human life. It tells us in right chronological order since he was born and it goes stage by stage; becomes the school boy, the teenager who involved in love, and then he becomes the soldier(young adult stage), the justice(lawyer or judge in his matured adult age). Then, he moves to the next stage which is not been stated in this poem. Finally, he is at the end of his life and the old man got Alzheimer or maybe senility. This poem is a very great poem. It warned us that everybody will get through the same stages.
