American Literature Class
Well I just want to say I have never blogged before or really anything like it as I am not like everyone else apparently and nor do I participate in the American crazed Facebook as I am almost against it. I personally think people are getting lazier and lazier and would rather sit on their computers all day instead of getting out in the real world and talk to people in person now I guess that sounds pretty weird as I am now currently at the computer, but only because I have to for this class. Now to the topic at hand I guess I an supposed to write something about this class and literature related as what I have liked and what I did not like. Well to be brutally honest with you and everybody who really knows me knows I absolutely dread and hate reading anything bigger than a newspaper or magazine article I know that to some people that may seem sad but I say to each their own I would rather be outside working on something in the real world instead of reading old stories that I do not care anything about in the slightest. Then why am I even in this class because it is required and those are my humble thoughts for my very first blog.

“You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read. It was books that taught me that the things that tormented me most were the very things that connected me with all the people who were alive, or who had ever been alive.”

To open a book is to open your mind and knowledge is power.
I agree with Meghan. Literature throughout the ages can be as relevant today as it was then. Like Meghan said...it just takes an open mind.
