Argumentation #3: Reality Bites

Not everyone is perfect. Being perfect isn't real. Should we wait for a super hero to come save this world and this messed up society or should we keep moving and do something about it? Our current president isn't perfect at all, we cannot expect perfection from someone in charge neither because no one is perfect. According to George Eliott, an English writer of the Victorian era she believes that the world should just move on and not waist their time waiting on someone that has perfection to save everyone.

Donald Trump isn't perfect he makes plenty of mistakes and that's part of being a human. Like flaws that exist in our political system now. Even though our system isn't the best they still have progressed. They cause many people to open up and stand up for what they believe in. For example they've caused black lives matter to become a larger empowerment and an inspiration to others more than it already was. It also caused the times up movement to start speaking up about sexual harassment. If Obama was still in office it wouldn't be known or as large. If we were to continue making mistakes and learning from them maybe the world will slowly become better but it does not take perfection to save this messed up world. No one is perfect.

Life isn't easy and you have to struggle through it.It doesn't matter how good you are this world is messed up and there's no time to wait for someone to save it. If we had life so easy and we could have everything and anything then what's the point in life? Why are you even living? Struggle in this world is what we take and learn from its who we are and what we want to be better then. It doesn't even matter if you think superman will someday save this world we live in because its not going to happen we have to continue moving forward and do it our selves.

Argumentation #2: Haunting

Emily Dickinson was an american poet. Although she lived with her well known family members who were all about the community she was dark and very isolated. Emily claims that haunting of the mind is far worse than any physical haunt. Which I disagree with because haunting comes from learning and experience it can't be something that you're born with or just naturally comes. Society has an influence on young generations and corrupts them at a young age. You cannot come out of the womb being having fears already society takes a toll on you.

When you come into this world you are innocent and don't expect any fear, you don't even know what it is. Let's say when you watch a scary movie you now have all of these paranormal things in your head and now you have a fear of whatever which was physically created not mentally. Before you watched that movie you knew nothing about it but the things society does puts things in your head to shape you. The mind doesn't make itself doesn't create its own fears it is influenced on what you physically do and how it effects you.

What if you are afraid of a killer or murderer? You wouldn't be afraid of them because you wouldn't know they were killers unless they influenced you physically. They can either show you on t.v shows or movies maybe you can even witness it yourself. If you become scared of what you see or hear that is because the haunting came from the outside. You aren't born automatically thinking that a person is a killer you have to be able to learn things like that.

Physical haunting doesn't come naturally it comes from influences. Being scared of something cannot be naturally absorbed. Haunting is a cause and effect thing. Something or someone would have to cause a haunting to have a physical effect on you.

Argumentation #1: Speak Hard Words

“Speak what you think today in hard words and tomorrow speak what tomorrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said today.” This is said by Ralph Waldo Emerson. He was a poet, a lecturer and an essayist, and he led the transcendentalist movement during the middle of the nineteenth century. It means say what you have to say and say it with power and confidence. Also when you say something stick to it and don't change up. I support what he has to say but I also refute with what he has to say. Yes you can speak in hard words again and again but you may think differently in the future. I've learned from experience,and the holocaust.

The holocaust is one of the examples of not speaking hard words. There's a quote by Martin Niemoller which says "first they came for the socialist and I did not speak out - because I was not a socialist... Then they came for me - and there was no one left to speak for me." which is he didn't care for the others in the holocaust until it happened to him and he contradicted himself. He repeatedly said that they came for them one by one but after they came for him he changed his word. He said one thing with power and then changed it up when it happened to him.

My personal experience is when I was determined to earn straight A's for the semester. I was turning in all of my assignments doing my best in classes, studying for tests. I really wanted to do better that semester. Later on towards the end I stopped studying, stopped understanding, that all eventually ended to some of my grades not being A's. I spoke hard words with confidence in the beginning and I later on didn't stick to what I said and I contradicted myself.

One day you may stick to something you believe in and another you may not think the same and contradict yourself. You may say everything with power and passion but there might be a time where you don't think the same. I'm saying this from my personal experience.
