My big question/ Novemeber

So i have a pretty big question. How do you trust someone when you don't trust yourself. I'm not saying that I don't trust myself but it's just something I always ponder. How is it that people trust others but yet at the same time not really trust themselves. You've probably heard people say like "I don't trust myself to remember" or something I like that. That's not what I mean. Like in reality does anyone truly trust themselves. Like imagine if everyone had an actual self in their body. Just imagine you're you now however there's also another one of you but different in a way. I'll let you imagine that part but wouldn't it be wierd to have another one of you but in you. Would you trust that person enough to accept their opinions? Would you trust them not to lie to you? Would you trust them not to put your life in danger?

Right or wrong to break the law?

Well laws are really there to sustain order and try to protect people. To break the law is very foolish in my opinion. Like when a cop pulls you over for not having a seatbelt and your just like "Are you serious what does it matter?!". Well it does matter because it's reassuring your safety if in any case your in an accident. So to break the law is very dumb everyone should obey the law for their own safety and their Children's and or spouses safety.

Henry David Thoreau quotes

"Rather than love, than money, than fame, give me truth" (Thoreau). Thoreau is referring to life itself. He is saying that instead of having so many things in life he much rather have honesty, truth. Ya you can have love, but is it real like really real not something that someone says just so they can say that they have someone in their life. You can have money, but what was the true cost to get that green paper that you cherish so much. Fame is great, but do the people who adore like you or what you did. Thoreau would much rather someone tell them the truth as to whether or not they are truly love them. He'd like to know where that money came from rather than have it and not care who it was taken from. He'd rather have people adore his work because that's what they like most.

"The world is but a canvas to our imagination" (Thoreau). Henry is referring to the world and imagination. "You can do anything you put your mind to" is what we're always told in school. Henry would tell us the same thing. You can imagine anything you could want but for it to become real you must do it yourself. Imagination is an amazing thing that brings us happiness because it's a place where anything can be real. If you want everyone in the world to see it though, you have to work on it. Just like painting, artists use their imagination then they work on it. They pay attention to every detail to make not good, not great, but perfect. If you put your mind into something and put the time into it then that idea that image inside your head. It will be a reality.

"Be yourself-not the idea of what you think somebody else's idea of yourself should be" (Thoreau) This quote is referring to a person's self. It's basically saying that you shouldn't try to be something that you believe that other people expect you to be. You should be yourself. Take a female for instance. They are expected to dress great, be beautiful, slim, do household chores, and many other things. They don't have to be and do those things. They're human being just like men. We are all human being and we can be what we want and be who we want. Just because that's "womanly" doesn't mean that they have to be that way.
