Super Flexible

Without truth, what do you really have? Well obviously, a lie. The truth always slips out one way or another. Whether it be through an elaborate ploy to outwit an experienced “fibber” or if the body responds appropriately. Such fine design surely deserves some sort of respect, no? Respect perhaps from the student, who really doesn’t know the effect of learning the trade, or respect from another who has reached a managerial stage with a secondary route. Morally speaking, one could argue quite easily that if the questions were not asked directly, why answer the indirect? Pushing the thoughts of others away from a certain question requires a special trait that allows for the debatable idea of moral flexibility. Taking all this into consideration, one comes up with the point of what is and what isn’t fair. One may feel extreme discomfort if most any creature is poorly treated. PETA plays on these emotions of people well, they realize what power they can have on their donors. Is this fair to play on the hearts of those who clearly miss the point? To be too afraid to speak the truth, because of a cognitive dissonance, or an ulterior motive? I'm beginning to ask such questions, unbiased visions on one’s thoughts and views, friends and family, and many experiences from past, present, and future. What can I do to learn more? Maybe I need to step it up.



Practicing gang signs

To form our new gang, we needed to create an initiation. Of course. We all had henna tattooed on our faces, walked around Varanasi, went to museums, and practiced our "crazy" faces. We didn't have to try hard.
