Perceiving Reality

•April 30, 2019 • Leave a Comment

The modern world today is always changing, with vast choices of social media, exploitation of others on news stations and media outlets, places across the globe that we know is struggling but somehow not talked about, all these things show ways of a changing society or rather, reality. It hard to differ from reality and what we learn from our news stations and articles online, which is one of the only places to get somewhat reliable resources in today’s world, but they’re aren’t always true. Everything we see in the news can be so negative, whether it’s from out new president or the conflictions with muslims and the Middle eastern countries, or Russia or North Korea. It can be devastating to see these things every morning before work, school, or just going about your daily life, a famous quote said by Socrates, “What we are told dicates the way we perceive the world,” which is very much relevant and true in today’s society. Today’s world is filled with such negativity that’s it’s hard to look at the positives. One thing on the news can change your whole mood for the day.

It doesn’t have to only be the news though, the people you surround yourself with friends, family, teachers, or even the people you idol can change your whole perspective on reality either it positively or negatively. We as people attach to other people, we relate to them by sharing the same views or morals or ambitions or even hobbies. We surround ourself by the people we enjoy, but that can sometimes not be the case. We can have negative people in our life who can be harmful so our own well being, that alone can give us a very negative outlook on the world. With all negative outlook on media, or negative people that can really dictate how we view the world or reality as a whole. A lot of things can easily be put into our head that can change our heart and soul and personality.

Ethical Prisons

Today’s American prison system is heavily flawed, especially what’s happening inside the prison. Cells are small and bland, food is known to have maggots in them and there is no positive social engagement. This leads to more repeat offenders because they become so unprepared for the outside world.

In Germany’s prison system there are activities like art, yoga, cooking classes, and organized sports. On good behavior they get weekend leaves and they get their own clothes and rooms which gives them their own identity. The whole point of German prisons is to rehabilitate them and prepare them for society again, they get counselors and jobs, unlike American prison system which is just to punish them. Germany believe that it’s punishment enough that they are taken away from their family and job and the outside world. Also, unlike American prisoners you’re not striped away from your rights like to vote, and have any job you want and any house you want.

All these extra activities in prisons are probably assumed that German prisons might cost more but that’s actually not the case. Germany believes that there are many alternatives to prisons, like community service, fines, and prohibition, and become of that a lot these people are in the jail system.

Zodiac Sign: Cancer

Zodiac signs are a fun and interesting way to learn new things about yourself and do not have to be taken too seriously. You might find things that are true within your zodiac sign or other things that you find completely false but they are always fun to read. The zodiac sign for this blog post is the Cancer, people with this zodiac sign are born between June 21st and July 22nd.

I fall into the category of this zodiac sign so its hard to write about it without being biased. Cancers usually get a lot of hate people we are seen as over sensitive and very emotional. But it is also very true. The symbol for a Cancer is the crab, meaning we have a hard exterior and try to act calm and collective but on the inside we are really softies. The element for a Cancer is the water element, like Scorpio and Pisces. This means we tend to be guided by emotion and tend to think with the heart instead of the head.

Some other characteristic for the Cancer is we have a really good intuition and go with our gut instinct instead of thinking it through. We also tend to be highly imaginative, loyal, and sympathetic. But our downfall can be due to because we are moody, pessimistic, suspicious, manipulative, and insecure. Tending to make us the crybabies of all the zodiac signs, but it just means we have a good heart.
