Humanities is the study of the human culture and how we express ourselves through literature, art, music, and philosophy. I believe the purpose of humanities is to express ourselves and put our mark on the world now and the world to come. Not through force, evil acts or war, but through words and art, to show the people of today and the future how and what we think and feel in a safe and often beautiful way. To explore new thoughts and ideas in a creative way.
It’s a way of escape from our scary and crazy world, into a place where there are heroes and villains, where good always triumphs over evil, where the nerdy girl gets the guy, where the impossible is possible. It’s a place where we can realize one person can make a difference to give …show more content…
They can tell realistic stories, documentaries or fictional. I love movies because they always motivate me to do something.
Personally I loved learning about Poetry. I of course have heard about poetry, I mostly misunderstood it not being able to actually get the lingo of the art, I believe that this class has helped me with that. I believe I didn’t even care or want to read and understand poetry but when I was forced to through this class I am now glad I took the time to try and figure it out.
I think what I like about poetry is the metaphorical language of it all, art can mean anything to anyone but with poetry there is an intent purpose that he or she wants to say, a feeling her or she would like to portray onto their readers and I like that.

I would put one of my favorite movies in Captain America the First Avenger. I love this movie because of what captain America stands for. Not just justice but an ordinary guy who is rather on the puny side wanting to make a difference. I love that he is good for the sake of being good and he wants to make a difference and goes through some pretty hard stuff to do that. I believe we need more people like that, who don’t give up just because the odds are stacked against them.
Next I would choose Twilight. Yes, know many people think it is stupid and poorly written but honestly Twilight was the book that got me reading. I don’t think it is just about a girl with a vampire boyfriend getting attacked a lot, I believe it is about a girl trying to go through high school and figure out who she is and where she wants to go and what she wants to do. Finally I would put my art journaling Bible in. I know the bible is well over 16 years old but I have been art journaling in my bible for about a year now. I think that this is a new beautiful way to present the gospel to a generation I would definitely never meet
