    That’s exactly what happened to me. My voice is what makes people pay attention and listen. Without it, I felt irrelevant and did not know any other effective ways to communicate. To me, it reminds me of how we as a society are puppets to the puppeteers. The puppeteers are the media. We don’t have a voice sometimes because we let the media speak for us and tell us how to feel. My lack of communication made me feel excluded and susceptible to anything. I could have easily gestured yes or no, but…

    In Plato’s Republic, Book VI, Plato uses a series of analogies to help him define The Good and it’s meaning in order to defend the notion that only philosophers can know real knowledge and the ultimate goal is to reach wisdom. He does this by illustrating three analogies: The Sun Analogy, The Divided Line, and The Cave Analogy.

    that as it may, this shows how some individuals would be more inclined to follow rather than lead. After reading about the allegory of the cave, I stand under the impression that we are living in a worldwide façade, only a few groups of people (the puppeteers) know the truth. The difficulty is finding out what the fact is, and since our own selves do not know, countless prisoners would instead remain ignorant then accept any other reality that is not what they are used to dealing with. The point…

    My dear Ophelia was a violet living among the bed of thorns. An image of innocence and purity in among the disease, death and deceit that runs rampant throughout the court of Denmark. For her to have downed among the weeping willows, no to have downed herself, to escape the woes that littered her mortal coil. Without a man to guide her no wonder she drifted astray, condemned to hell for the abomination of her death. Hamlet without a doubt would have set he on this damned path. His fruitless…

    often will people conjecture to compos mentis; that of all done, some deeds find no connection with reproduction. However, flora and fauna of ranging epochs suggest otherwise. Animals are androids for procreation; latent unconsciousness is the puppeteer, pulling the cords and strings of all fates. Though many have besought another candor, verity does not mark. Exclusively propagating in purpose, beings heed neither unto cognisance nor mindful advertency, for all partaken in life is but an…

These are the people who remain shackled to the wall, are unable to move their legs or heads, and, “see only their own shadows, or the shadows of one another” (Plato 587). These people remain in the darkness,…
