Looking through the qualities, I can relate my life together with the people around me, and my parents with TENACITY because no matter how hard or tough the situation we are going through, we still remain as compact as possible and together, we resist separation because we truly are INSEPARABLE. And like a mineral’s streak, I am able to show my true colors to the people who I am comfortable to be with and to the people who won’t judge me for who I am and just letting me be.

The properties that does not describe me as a person is CLEAVAGE & FRACTURE because first of all, we can never deny the fact that there are some times wherein life hits us hard and I am not that type of person who just breaks along so easily and just let the scars get into me because these scars allowed me to define myself who I am as a person.

While I was strolling in our place in Lutopan, I saw these rocks as one of the exhibit of the mining company in our place which is the Carmen Copper Corporation (CCC). I was so amaze that I took pictures of them and I also remember that I can use the pictures for our weekly challenge.

After that day, I try to search in the internet about the qualities and properties of these rocks and mineral. And I try to reflect each rock/mineral to myself. And I found out that the closest rock that could describe myself is the sandstone. From the name itself you can tell that a sandstone is a sedimentary rock. Sandstone is made up of grains and quartz, common minerals. In mohs scale, sandstone is in between 6-6.5. And commonly its color is gray. And its density is 2.3. Sandstone can be use as manufacturing of plate glass, fine table glassware, and common glassware.

So why does sandstone is the closest rock that could describe me?

A sandstone is a common rock and I am an ordinary person. I am influenced by many people and I have different personalities just like how a sandstone is composed of different minerals. I look hard outside but I may also break inside. And sandstone comes with many uses to people especially in building different things in our house and it can be a decorative stone that could make our house more beautiful. I can be a friend, daughter, student, cousin, etc. and I can bring colors also to people’s life just like how I brought colors to my parents’ life. I may be an ordinary person but I have my own way to be unique from the others.
