 * 1) Mythology does in fact have some truth in the stories, but it also has some false theries. For example, people being greedy. They were greedy in ancient times, and most still are today. In these myth stories the greedy people always end up getting punished but that doesn't always happen in todays society. Also, religion played a big part. Religion has and always will be a major part of life. In the stories, they reflected their culture. Last, mythology may have some incorrect feedback. In these stories they may tell you why a giraffe is tall, or why a crow is black and makes the sound it does. Well these are almost always false. It's just that ancient people made up these stories to try to understand things in nature. All in all, mythology can haves its truths aswell as fake truths. You just have to be able to identify which is which so you don't start beliving false facts.
 * 2) The book, __Lord of the Flies__ by William Golding, is about a plane that crashes into an island in the middle of no where. This plane was full of very different boys who now have to manage to survive together.The boys end up actually creating the figure of "the bestie" inside their minds. Even though there is tecnacally no evil on the island, the boys create this monster so that they can have something to fear. So they are truly freaking out about nothing. I believe that Golding's message is that fear lies within the beholder.
 * 3) I have read many books whos theme had to do with dreams and have come to the conclusion that dreams are in fact true. In a lot of the books I have read, there is usually a character who dreams about being rich. The truth is, their dream will never come true unless they take action. Or daily lives can have a great impact on our dreams. So the truth is that we must show/tell the world about our own specific dream in order for something to happen. MLK did this in his "I have a dream speech" Dreams can be true if you want them to be.
 * 4) All of my posting have been very diffrent. I personally don't believe that they will help me with my project because my opinions any varied threw out the year. I am thinking about doing my project on people because this seems like a topic iI have talked about a lot.

What have you discovered so far? I have found out the anatomy of the eye. Also how a human's vision works and creates a image in our brain.

How might you share these insights with the class? I am thinking about describing how vision works by bringing in a big eyeball and sharing with the class. This is only a possibility.

What other questions? A question I may ask the class, is what other questions can I research to answer the question, "How does truth change based on perspective?" Also, any examples?
