Hero's Journal - Hero to Team

Quote:

"If civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relationships -the ability of all peoples, of all kinds, to live together, in the same world at peace."

I think this quote means that if we are to civilize we must be civilized. You can't make a civilization with uncivilized people. When I mean uncivilized I basically mean that humans who doesn't have the ability to have a relationship with a person. In my terms I basically mean that they are really crazy to the point to where they don't have a personal relationship with anyone and it would be hard to make one. This quote is important because it explains to me what a world should be like because our world today is uncivilized.

*Mini Challenge*


      My favorite physical sport is basketball. I like this sport because its the most interesting to me out of all  of the physical sports and its also a lot of fun. One of the most popular basketball games out there is NBA 2K and all of the other ones they have done. One positive feedback loop from the game is how the newest game that just came out NBA 2K16 it gives you all the control of how you would really feel when your in a basketball. One negative feedback loop from this game is that when you are playing the game they don't program the game  to where its fair.

Hero's Journal- Rise to the Challenge

Hero's Journal- Rise to the Challenge

Quote:

"Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore."

                                                                                                                                                                                    
       This quote to me basically means that you can't leave stuff behind. Don't run away from your problems! When you run away from your problems nothing will ever get fixed. I mean understand that you can get a better oppurtunities and you wanna go ahead and do it but always fix what you have now or it's going to get way worse. The longer you wait to fix something the worse its going to get.

Hero's Journal - The Path Ahead

Hero's Journal- The Path Ahead

Poem:

The Road Not Taken
Robert Frost1874 - 1963
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.


        What the poem means:

This poem can mean a lot of things to a lot of people in many ways but to me this poem is really special. I have actually read this poem last year during a public speaking class and we had discussed the background of the poem and what we think it meant by actually breaking down the stanza's. From what I have learned Robert Frost was bit of a joker back in the day. Him being a joker had written this poem as a joke and decided to send it to one of his close buddies. When his friend read the poem he had taken the poem really seriously and had decided to go into the army. And sadly a year later he had died which is really sad. Basically to me I think that the poem means that you can always choose what path you want but remember life is too short so don't over think your decisions too much. One of the major life choice that we make is deciding on what we want to be in life..We could either be successful or unsuccessful.
