=__//WHAT IS TRUTH??? media type="custom" key="731967"//__=

In all of the postings i found that they all had their basic and general outlines of what their presentation is going to be like. I discovered that most of them needed to expand alittle bit more. All of those connected to my research because they all were about truth and the insights of life. These postings led me to consider many new things and question my own thoughts about what is right.
 * //__Results of posting and looking through other people's postings__//**

__**//Truth research//** What is the truth in the way people judge one another. So far i've got 3 essential quesitons: 1) The way people judge each other of their apperance 2) The way people judge each other of their actions 3) The way people judge each other of their words
 * Truth question:**__
 * __Insights:__**

So for #1 i so far have got The way people judge each other of their apperance -takes less than 3 seconds to judge someone -the cloths they wear -hair style -personal hygene

The way people judge each other of their actions -first impressions -direct relation to what you say -personality (way you act, things you do)
 * 2

3# The way people judge each other of their words -the way you talk -words you use -accents

Power point? probally the most original hummm i can't really think of anything else... a poster would be lame because it would take up quite some time...
 * __Presentation:__**

Anything you guys got for me to help me with the project?
 * __Questions:__**

__**//What is the true truth in mythology?//**__ 10/22/07 There really isn't much truth in myth unless you truly believe in that myth. For example, the Greeks made up myths about the Gods because they actually believe that they Gods are there and they believe that the "truth" is that the Gods are there and they interact with what the earth and what happens on the earth. Like Demeter, she provides the rain and the seasons and she provides everything that the Greeks need for crops and everything that is food incorporated that they need. But if you don't believe in Greek Gods then u would just be like oh rain...yeah its just precipitation from the clouds. But myths still have some truth even if you don't believe in it, they tell the nature of how humans are. In the myth, everything in there is true about humans they where added into the myths so that other people hearing the myths would understand the way humans are through observation and actions. In conclusion things that happens in life are explained through myths that are created by people who believe in the myths. Otherwise, people that don't believe in that certain myth will come up with another "belief" for what they need to explain the natural everyday happenings that they go through.

1/28/08 In William Golding's //The Lord of the Flies//, a group of English boys are trapped on an island after their plane crashes. Forced to survive on their own, the boys face their fears of the unknown in very different ways. Golding uses these boys to represent different ways society deals with its own fears. Based on our reading, what is the "truth" about fear that Golding wants us to see?
 * //__What is the truth about fear?__//**

The truth about fear is that fear is the fuel that powers our actions. For example for the book "lord of the flies" when the kids all get scared and start to fear the beast, it leads them to do unimaginable things, such as kill Simon and even make a fort to protect against the beast; an imaginary "idea". It fuels all the things that we do, if we're scared of something humans will either try to destroy the fear or hide from the fear. Also another example from lord of the flies is that when the kids are fearful of the beast, the kids go and try to hunt down the beast thus killing it to conquer the fear of the beast that is attacking their minds. But what truly is the definition of fear??? The true meaning of fear is something that is created by the host. For example the kids in LOTF CREATED the beast our of their mind it was something that the kids made.

__//What is the "truth" about dreams?//__
4/9/08 Over the course of this semester, we have explored a number of different types and pieces of literature about dreams and have explored the nature of dreams through our research. Based on our work, what do you see as the "truth" about dreams? As a part of your paragraph, explain how you would support this using examples from our course literature. This should be the thesis and plan for your dream essay.

The truth that I see in dreams are that without dreams, life is not worth living or as a poem by Langston Hughes compares life without dreams to a "barren field frozen with snow". Like in the book "Of Mice and Men", George and Lennie get the dream that they are to pursue what truth they believe in the American dream. Or like the speech "I Have a Dream" by Martin Luther King, he pursues the truth in what he believes in that blacks will be free from the racism against them. But what is a good example of what happens when a dream is crumpled again and again like a piece of paper? What happens when life is literally like a "barren field frozen with ice"? The book "A Child Called It" is a perfect example of what happens when your dreams are destroyed. Like the book "Of Mice and Men", George and Lennie pursue their dream of "tending rabbits" and "living off of the 'fatta the land". They pursue the American dream of owning their own littler piece of land and away from the "too-rough hands of the world". (Langston Hughes, Dream Keeper) Or like the speech "I Have a Dream", Dr. King has a dream of freedom from racism and everything against blacks. He pursues that truth that he can accomplish the dream of equality. But when there are no dreams left in your life then life truly is not worth living, like the the book "A Child Called It", the boy Dave Pelzer has dreams of freedom, dreams of a new life away from his mother. His dream is inscribed onto one person, the only person that new his existence, his father. But soon his father left and thus taking with him Dave's dreams and hope. As soon as his dream started, it was gone. As life is being compared to a "barren field frozen with ice", life is not worth living anymore. So as the boy looses his dreams, he just wishes that his mother would "have the mercy to kill me". (Pelzer 153) In conclusion, the truth in dreams are that without dreams, life is compared to a "barren field frozen with ice". Meaning that life must have dreams or you will not have any great expectations for yourself or have a goal in life.

In all of my postings i found that they all had one common thing. People saw truth though their own eyes. People saw truth though perspective. For the first posting, i said that people saw truth through their personal perspective of what was true. Some people have have thought that lightling was a natural thing, the greeks saw that the truth was that zues created the lightling. For the second posting, the kids of Lord of the Flies saw that truth was that there really was a beast and that it was out there ready to kill them thus they acted on their perspective of truth and started going crazy and build forts and all that good stuff to protect themselfs from it. For the last posting, a view of what you think is true and perspective comes again, people have different dreams in life, one of the most famous dreams was to free the blacks from rasicm and prosicution. But others had a different view of what was true. Most whites at that time thought that blacks were people that were lower than whites, they were only brought here to be slaves. That is what they thought was true.
