Slavery Footprint

This makes me kind of sad, but I am also a little relieved because I thought I was going to get a lot more slaves. Still 25 slaves... This is a little scary since I am like a  0 tolerance for slavery. I just strongly disagree with it.  The results of this survey is actually making me wonder, "How can I help? or Is it even possible to reduce this number?"  I am saddened by the number of slaves I got, but this is really motivating me to try and spread the word about this issue and that this is still very real today in the world we live.

Christian Fiction

Well, I didn't finish the book. From reading the article it seemed maybe Dracula looked like he was at peace, but why would he be at peace if he is going to hell? So my answer would be no, he didn't find peace. That is just in my opinion, but after reading the article I didn't really think much of it focusing on Christianity at all really. I tended to ignore that if I am honest, and I already had the mindset of, "This is just a scary book and I don't like it." It occurred to me that there are some positive things in this book! For example, good overcomes evil, they use a crosses to scare away vampires (demons), and they have characters crying and looking for God. It was those small things that the article pointed out to me, and gave me another mindset. To not really judge the book so soon, and to notice the little clues the author tries to portray. So, what I guess what I am trying to say is to analyze the context really.

Philosophy on Objectionable Elements

According to Dictionary.com, Personal Philosophy is the rational investigation of the truths and principles of being, knowledge, or conduct. My personal philosophy is the “Just Do It” by Nike. It is kind of silly, but I am the type of person where I let a lot of amazing opportunities pass me by because I let fears get in the way of my goals. I have a lot of fears and still to this day kind of let the fear get the best of me. Last year it was different though, I actually started applying that philosophy and  when I was asked to be a candidate to be a class officer, I was like, “What if I can’t be a leader or handle the pressures of being a leader? Or what if I don’t even win?” I just thought that the biggest risk is not taking the risk, and I never was going to know until I tried. So I did! I just did it and it turned out to be one of the greatest decisions of my life! I also applied that philosophy with this class! I never thought I would be able to handle an honors class, but I did because I wanted to see if I could do it. This philosophy can be applied to both academics to even daily life decisions, (and yes even to exercising, lol). It can be applied to just about everything, but I wouldn’t apply it to all situations because for example, gambling. If I have some money saved for college but I use it for a couple games and I say, “Just Do It.” I could end up broke, so I wouldn’t necessarily apply it to all situations. Of, course for me I apply this to a lot of aspects of my life and I use this philosophy responsibly. I just tend to miss out amazing opportunities because I am always scared of what can happen. So before I never really took the risk, but since applying that philosophy it allowed for me to break out of my shell and has helped me in life.
