Culture = Art.
As I was reading in an information about an Art College, the art history section seemed interesting and very true to what I think. The articles we find today were relics and art of ancient societies and peoples and the way they thought, lived their lives, and how the cities are run. Cultures are an interesting subject, and they therefore invoke travel. I want to see the world, not just a part of the world for a week looking at all the touristy sites. I would like to get to know the people, rich or not. Their opinions, likes/dislikes, what is endorsed by their society, and the way they pass time. Think outside of the box. My basic philosophy on a lot of things. Don't be afraid to be the only one standing, who knows maybe someone might realize a different perspective or idea is the way to go instead. Some places I want to travel are just for the experience. Why not go? Of course, there is some places that attract me more, but I'm not going to not go somewhere because someone says a place is dirty- it's part of its charm. The places I want to go may be the entirely different area of the city. I desperately want to see the world, get out of the small town, get my ideas out there. I hope that everyone does! Don't keep it quiet, after all we do have the freedom of speech, and now is the time to say your opinion. In the 60's and 70's seemed like a time where people actually protested whatever they didn't believe in. I support that. Peace has become a trend; to me, its a way of life. haha, It sounded like a slogan. Peace is a symbol representing no wars, loving and respecting everyone, no matter who they are. You'd be surprised if everyone understood (notice not agree) with the idea maybe our world would become a greater place. Without less hatred and murders? Now come on, who in this world would think that is a bad thing? History is repeating itself, and our culture should see that. Times have changed, and ideas are becoming more clear. Pacifism is a strong movement and political philsophy should be brought up again to see who does not support hurting innocent people for merely something that doesn't involve them. We should not just wear the symbol, know what it stands for. Some people wear the symbol and mean it, I hope you do.
