SELF RELIANCE ... part 4

I think we need to go beyond to what society wants from us. Learning is changing our minds and helping us grow. If you get new information test it and learn from it (incorporate it). A FOOLISH CONSISTENCY IS THE HOBGOBLIN OF LITTLE MINDS... a little mind is terrified of new information while a big mind isn’t afraid (not a coward). TO BE GREAT IS TO BE UNDERSTOOD.... to have a new unique idea doesn’t require an explanation. Huge difference between being taught and learning. Our idea is to be understood and to articulate it is even better. We can decide to do something different but our genuine character is always there. Ephemeris<< use a polite word instead of something you really feel. The people that we honor and respect they earned it because of their characteristics instead of them persuading us. We have that ability and raw materials to be inspirational. The first bold line I typed in I get what he’s saying in way , if you are so used to doing the same thing and something new while someone with a big mind is willing to go the extra mile and isn’t afraid of taking new risks.

LET ME WALK YOU THROUGH THE PEDESTRIAN

                 In the story,  The Pedestrian Bradbury felt so much emotions through out this outrageous experience and his afternoon walk. He felt flustered and agitated when he was simply strolling the streets and then suddenly being stopped by a police officer. He was just enjoying the crisp breeze, the cars cruising by, and the city lights beaming down, which the police officer seems to be taking that as a crime. Bradbury has this real life experience and had so many feelings about the situation that instead of keeping this to himself he went home and portrayed this and wrote it into an actual story.                  Ray Bradbury sets the story in a futuristic setting in the year of 2053. His tone in the story is somewhat lonely. He gives us the image of him walking by himself so clearly and precise to the point that we feel we are walking behind him and just present in that very moment...
