Everyday you're surrounded by people, but could you imagine them disappearing. Well imagine that you were shipped away to a desert island. Away from not only your friends but everyone. How would you feel, how would you react. Would you be shocked, would you be happy, sad, or would you laugh.
I would probably cry because I love my family, my friends, and I would even miss my teachers. But who am I to know, I am surrounded by hundreds of people everyday and going off to a desert island is a very unlikely situation.
Many people enjoy alone time but still have people around them in there everyday environment. Others enjoy the company of others and to be on a desert island alone would be very hard for them.
Theirs also another side of being around people its the feeling of recognition. I have also noticed when I'm sitting around in a place full of people who I am very familiar with and still be able to find different characteristics about them that you never noticed before. How is this well over the years our focus is still improving but weakens as we get over 20-30 says the NATO. So when we look at someone we don't usually notice the small things but when not deep in conversation and just deep in thought we notice these small things usually one by one.
In conclusion people have a huge influence on our life's, the way we act, and the choices we make so even if we are stranded on a desert island alone, our life's would change forever.
"Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up."
~ Bible: Ecclesiastes

Wow Aleda! This post really made me think even though the desert island thing is really unlikely I wondered what it would be like to be completly alone! I think I would be really shoked and sad. It would also be really boring and like you, I would miss my family and friends alot. I also agree with what you said about noticing little things about people when your deep in thought. Great post! Keep it up;)
ReplyDeleteAleda, this blog really made me think. I realized that I could never live with out other people surrounding me. But I do like my alone time. And I agree with you and Rowena, it's funny how you think about those little things about a person, that you wouldn't notice other wise! I could really relate to this blog. Next time I would try and describe what your talking about a bit more. Over all, I really enjoyed reading your blog.
