In this 4th challenge we were tasked to somehow reflect ourselves onto the properties of both Minerals and Rock. On which properties we could relate to and those properties that aren't present in ourselves. The five properties of rocks are Hardness , Cleavage , Luster , Color , Streak and Texture. While the minerals are Crystal Shape , Cleavage , Color , Luster and microsopic observation. Now let me reflect onto those properties.
Some properties of Minerals were already stated from the rock which were the Color and Luster. The only one left would be the Cleavage. Cleavage is defined as the tendency of the mineral to break along flat planar surfaces as determined by the structure of its crystal lattice. So basically a part breaks but they don't get fully destructed. It's something I can relate with every trial and challenge I encounter. I may break apart but that doesn't mean I will lose hope and give up to it. I will find a way to fix myself together and overcome that challenge again.
So that is how I can relate myself to both the properties of rock and minerals for our 4th weekly challenge. This is Kyle Valencia signing off.
