I was impressed and inspired to use a house as my own personal metaphor for many reasons.
Roofs as a metaphor of life.
Thanks to this metaphor all of the above issues which might be powerful enough to build an organization on or at least a coherent service design are now available to those of us working in concert within our initiative in india in nearly total recall by saying three simple words leaky roofs matter.
The metaphor that i have chosen to use is that of a house.
No matter how big a hammer you use you can t pound common sense into stupid people ah metaphors.
Simply put metaphors help us make comparisons between two things in an indirect manner.
Commitment to taking action that is aligned with your values to build a rich full and meaningful life.
When a house is built on a solid foundation physically it is built to stay forever.
Installation costs and lifetime value.
In moses when thou buildest a new house thou shalt make a parapet for thy roof that thou bring not bloods on thine house if anyone fall from it.
Metaphors for life are a way of comparing life to other things in a way that may help you think about your life and problems in a different way.
Wood shingles are more expensive than asphalt shingles costing between 6 50 and 11 00 per square foot installed.
Metal roofing runs the gamut of price and quality starting around 115 per square for standing seam panels in aluminum or steel.
In fact i recently wrote a blog post using a garden metaphor.
If you go with the roof of.
3 as a roof signified good therefore the ancients had roofs on their houses where they walked and also where they worshiped as can be seen in 1 sam.
So for example if you said something like the roof was as pointed as a church steeple you are using a simile.
To extend the life of a wood shingle roof make sure to replace split and cracked shingles immediately and keep the roof free of moss.
Collectively metaphors not only help people describe and make sense of their lives but can serve as a source of encouragement motivation or gratitude.
The average life of roofing.
The metaphor is the fog being represented as a cat.
The life expectancy of your roof depends factors that include the roof design and the climate you live in as well as the quality of installation and long term care.
When i read this i was immediately drawn to act because i love metaphors.
Metal roofs are attractive durable and can last up to 70 years.
Hearing that story immediately made me think of one of my favorite metaphors about life.
