The big question

Do people see colors differently? Like is my red the same as your red? But how will we ever know if we've both been taught to identify that color as red? Another question is do people, born blind, see anything people with sight will never see?

Everything is amazing

In the video "Everything is amazing and no one is happy" there were many examples of satire throughput the video. One i happen to remember very cleary was when he talks about people literally flying through the air and stil complaining about how much they have to wait. This was an appealing example of satire to me, because i found he describes a vivid picture of what we really should be thinking about and he humourasly describes how were are so worried about the dumbest s***.  Another example that's currently running through my mind, because this is something i do, is when he talks about how we get so mad when our phones lag. To me this is an example of satire, because hilariously describes how much better our ways of using phones are compared to when he was a kid. He also explains how its going to SPACE!!!

Wow!!! Thats was my reaction after reading the poem,"The Laughing Heart." Its crazy how a couple of words can completely change the way people look at life. Many people don't have hope and would love to give up, but poems like this are what inspire those people to keep going. This poem tries to persuade the idea of there always being light in your darkest moment and if you just keep your head up high and just keep moving forward you'll soon find it.
Although i hate reading i didnt mind reading something as imtersting as that. What i learned from it is that saying I have the right to my own opinion is just a lame excuse to cover up something wrong. Whats the point of even stating that you have the right to your opinion? At the end of the day that doesnt make you opinion any greater than anyone else's. I think its crazy how we are so caught up in our egos that we dont have the courage to acknowlegde our mistakes. Thats all i have to say about the article i read, https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4N6VdfN_pCKYUt6ZkxFSHc0S3c/view?pref=2&pli=1
