There is so much truth behind the saying, “Every rose has it’s thorn”. It’s the perfect juxtaposition of beauty and pain; the thought of it alone speaks volumes.

New York is a very insecure city. It is full of life, love, and so many other qualities but it just doesn’t see it. Like a butterfly, the city has these big beautiful wings. The colors are vibrant, the patterns are captivating, and they look so majestic in flight. Butterflies cannot see the beauty of their own wings, but the rest of the world can. Just like a butterfly, the city is unaware of all the beauty and power that it holds. New York City can be really violent and rough. Spike Lee, who is a Brooklyn native, released his film Do The Right Thing modeling it after his native borough and the street he grew up on.

Yin and Yang are two halves that perfectly complete each other. Yin is the dark, aggressive, and weak half. Yang is the bright, insightful, and strong half. Together, they balance each other out and makes a whole. Like Yin and Yang, New York has its strengths and weaknesses that make up the personality of the city.

It is a city full of wonder and excitement around every corner. The city streets are full of joy and laughter among all of the busy New Yorkers hustling to get to their destinations. Tourists from all over the world travel to the city to see the bright lights and feel the heartbeat of the town. Aspiring actresses, singers, and even writers come to the city to indulge themselves in the rich culture New York inhabits. Being a New York native myself is an honor for me to have. Sometimes, I can’t tell if the city is a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare that I can’t wake up
