The Last 3 Minutes Jan/12/23

   I think that the ultimate purpose of life is to experience.  You're supposed go through the ups and downs in life and know what happy and not so happy moments are.  Apart of that purpose is to learn.  In the good and the bad times, theres a lesson that you're supposed to get from those experiences.  I don't think there's much more to it.  No matter what stand point you look at it from and no matter what you believe, you're here to learn and experience what life has to offer you.  The film that we watched in class named "The Last 3 Minutes" was a visual representation of that.  We watched a man's life flash before his eyes before he died and we saw everything he went through.  The last thing I think is apart of the purpose of life is to live and die.  Dying, is one of the greatest purposes of life.  Knowing that it ends but not when it ends is what is supposed to teach us to live and experience it to the fullest.

Reflection Jan/20/23

 In class, Mr.Rease gave us a writing prompt. We had to think of a topic that we thought was overrated. The topic I went with was “wanting to fitting in”.  We then had to come up with five points to go with the main topic. My subtopics were: insecure, dependent, bad clout, superficial, and temporary. Of course, we had to elaborate on those subtopics. We put them in a graph where theres a circle in the middle and the small circles extending from it. Next week we’ll turn them into essays.
