Every day in this class, we talk about open minds and free spirits in some way. Or how a writer writes
in a free spirited kind of way. But most of the people in our class fully understand what that means.
I don't. I know the idea of free spirits and open mindedness but to actually make it happen in my life
seems to be a bit of a struggle for me. I would like to be able to do it and involve it into my life in all
aspects but I just don't know how.
I have two jobs, I take care of my little brother, and I have school work. How can I just put that stuff
'aside' and feel free? How can I think that I have no big worries or stresses?
Stress is something those people may not even have. But is that even possible? Can someone really not have stresses?! Doesn't stress naturally come with everyday life? Or could that just be me?
Or instead of just stress, maybe worries. Don't worries happen in everyone's life at least once? Or instead of the negative everyday things in life and it actually be the effect of situations one has been put in
in life. Can that be the cause of a closed mind?
I feel that although someone has a closed mind, it's not necessarily a bad thing. In class I feel like we have
talked about numerous ways to open it up: writing, drawing, crafts, movies, music and anything else not mentioned above.
Open minds=Creativity. Being creative to me, means being able to look at all perspectives
and add a little bit of something into a whole creation. No matter what creation is made. Creativity is
being open to new ideas from other creations or from other people. My main train of thought
that this class has helped me with is, now I know how to be more open minded or at least learn
to work for it.
