Quote

I agree with the quote because having free will, you can either take it for granite or not. Having free will is choices that you make to actually cause it to be good or bad. If you make bad choices in your life they will come back to taughnt you in later life. You make your own curses to free will.

Is it half full or half empty: Realist/Idealist

A few years back I was sitting in my kitchen talking to my mom about realists and idealists. Up to this point for whatever reason i had not heard of the expression of the glass being half empty or half full. So my mom grabbed a glass out of the cupboard and asked me what do you see. Now not knowing i said "A glass of water" my mom replied "and its...?" I then came back questionably with "half empty" she told me about how my grandma was always the positive one that viewed the glass at half full. Most of the time i like to view myself as positive wouldn't everybody? But at that moment I realized that i was a little bit of a realist. This kind of thing made me a little sad i always believed that I was sort of an idealist but i thought about and I do have some idealist qualities like always being thankful for what i have but also being a bit of a complainer.

"mankinds greatest gift, also its greatest curse,is that we have free will" by Elisabeth kubler-

i disagree with this quote, because if you think about it people dont have as much free will as people like to think. everything you do is regulated by rules and laws and is influenced by what you grow up around and what you go through in your life. i think that if more people practiced there true free will that our world could be a better place and there would be less problems in our world

hypocrites

Hypocrites are people who pretend to be someone they aren't or people who judge people for certain things when they them selfs actually do the same things. the world to me is full of these kinds of people, alot are kids maybe trying to fit in or hide who they really are, and another great majority is parents and adults who might know something that they are doing is bad or wrong and they just dont want you to do the same things they do.

quote

Free will can be a curse and a gift because with free will comes The chance of making a bad decision and screwing up big time, but also its good because you could make the right decisions and do something great with your life. so i think that since we are all given the luxery of free will, we should use it wisely because right now in egypt and other countrys they have dictatorshiop and dont really have much free will because they are watched all the time.. and look how thats turing out.. rebellions and deaths.

Realist or idealist.

I believe Kayla is a idealist, She realizes that there is no way she can excape global-1 and yet she continues trying. She is trying to believe that she is doing the right thing, but then at time's turns back and realizes she should just give into the barcode. I believe Zekeal is a realist. He looked at the facts and realized that getting "coded" was the only way to do things.

Quote

I agree with the quote. I agree with it because free will can be both a great thing and bad thing depending on how you use it. If you use free will for bad things it can be a great curse for you and other people. If you use free will for a good thing you can really bless your life and the life of others. This is why i agree with this quote. Free will definitely goes both ways.

Im More an Idealist

Thinking and dreaming keeps this world on its toes. Many people have over active imaginations and just thinks of situations. I'm famouse for that. many times i think of my boyfriend coming in to the school or bands coming and seeing me sing their songs. It may seem out there and stupid but it could happen. You do never know what happens and i do believe in that so im a big idealist person. Also it passes the time in class Choi. Hahahahaha just kidding. But also i like the mistical things. i love playing games with the mistical middle ages and stuff like that. Dunces and Dragons is a good example. You make up your own charater and play with friends with made up situations. A made up story.

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross and bball game

"Mankind's greatest gift, also its greatest curse, is that we have free will." This quote reminded me of one of my basketball games. It was in the fourth quarter, score tied, and the referee called a foul on a girl whos face went into the floor. So of corse the dad got mad. Okay not just mad but REALLY MAD! He started flipping out saying the refe sucks and everyone sucks just because of a bad call. So that is an exaple of the greatest curse that we have free will. I thought it was really funny.

kayla was sad and crying about her fathers death but now gene died, she doesnt know what else to do but cry. she feels like shes all alone. kaylas going threw hard things in life, her friend amber ends up telling her that shes moving because her dad was fired and theirs no way for amber to stay. i feel bad for kayla shes slowley losing everything. also it sounds like kayla and zekeal like eachother. its good she hangs out with zekeal still because after everything kayla needs to get away and hang out with someone. zekeal takes kayla to the secret group agenst the bar code tattoo. people are now going around beating up the people who dont have the tattoo. kayla gets home and asks her mom all these questions about her dad and it sounds like her dad could have been a TMP (tattoo mania psycho) and that would mean if you were apart of hat group that you had a problem with drugs and alcohol.
