Juxtaposition, it is a placed in nearness, contiguity, or side by side as a juxtaposition of words. The act of juxtaposing is to place two objects or words next to each other and when both of them is put side by side, our brain try to figure what is the relationship between that two objects. Conflict happens between the Left Brain and the Right Brain and creates an analogy consists of metaphor and similes.

Metaphor is a figure of speech which consists of two different things that are linked by some similarity. The comparison that shows it is obvious are not consider as metaphors. Therefore, there are metaphors occur when the two different ideas are being connected to imaginative ways and agreed to be dissimilar at first.

Similes are two images that bring the same meaning and are connected to each other and the two description of the two images are combined using 'as' or 'like'.

These are the few examples that is related to either metaphor of similes:







Life is like a candle,
Short, yet brightful,
It's your choice whether to shine or not,
As we don't know when will the next wind blow.
They don't work without each other;
They don't exist without each other;
They are meant for each other,
Like man and woman, father and mother.
Innocence is the key to happiness,
Doing what we like, enjoy what we do,
Care less, and play more;
Like a kitten had a fall.
