Team vocab

When it comes to the elections of this year many people can anticipate these two candidates to surely accuse each other from doings of the past. Each canadate tries to remain stolid but Hilary definitely outbeats trump. It's aggravating because trump and Hilary are constantly sticking their proboscis into everyone's business and venomously attacking each other. With each debate America is left suspended to watch the next one just to see the two yell at each other. Both Candidates try to hypnotize the world into thinking their fit to be president trying to prove that they can transform this world into something greater, but they simply just illuminate each other's faults.

A HUG IS NEARLY A GUN SPELLED BACKWARD

           
There is a famous quote that I’ve always heard which is, “Family is the most important thing in the world.” I’m conjecturing that E.M Foster, a writer, agrees with this quote. Foster states that, in his point of view, personal relations are more important than causes or patriotism.  This got me thinking and wondering if I agree with him. Therefore I put myself in the situation, which was if I would pick my family and friends over my nation. And, I agree with E.M Foster that personal relations are more important than patriotism.

            I think friends and family is more important because they have been with you almost your whole life. You know their life stories and they know yours. For example, they know your interests, goals, dislikes, personality and everything about you. Also, your personal relationships involves love and care. I don’t think my whole nation cares about me or even knows I exist because they don’t know me and I don’t know them, they are strangers. Another reason why I would choose them over my whole nation is because if you concentrate on just your nation and try to make it better then you’ll end up alone and miserable because all you will end up with is a big union that barely even know you. 

            Some may argue that causes and patriotism is more important than personal interest because your whole nation is more people and your friendship is less. They may also include that you are being selfish because all you care is your people and not the others. In my point of view the whole nation doesn’t compare the way you friends/family protect and help you out. You communicate with them, unlike communicating with the whole nation, for me, it would be impossible having a conversation. Also, yeah there’s lots of people in our nation than our family, but our family is technically our own world.

            In conclusion, I’m with E.M Foster, that personal relations are more important than patriotism. Even though, some people may disagree because it would make a better place, I think most people care about their family out all the things they have. Family is pretty much all you have and an important thing.

BIG QUESTION DISCIPLINE/S

My big question was how do people get interested in things (music, people, tastes, smells etc.) ? I think this question fields in sociology and science.
