Web Assignment 1 My Cave |
||||||||||||
The Cave in Plato's allegory is the place where people are prisoners of ignorance and darkness. What is my own personal cave? What do I need to be liberated from? What holds me in darkness and ignorance? Have I had an experience of being liberated from a particular cave? Consider how I might be released from this cave. I have a lot of caves that hold me back in my life. I think my biggest one is my overall laziness and lack of motivation to do things that are good for me and stuff I should do. The most obvious one of these is going to Church. I always tell myself that this week I'm going to make it there somehow, but most days I never ask my mom to go there with me or even just drop me off. Now that I can drive, hopefully I'l go more because now I lost that other excuse. Another big one is my laziness concerning any and usually all of my school work; I just can't motivate myself to do stuff early, I'm always doing things at the last minute. I'm actually writing this at about 11 at night the day before its due. I'd definitely say laziness is what keeps me in darkness now in terms of fulfilling life because if I'm not motivated to go do something I usually end up sitting at home and watching tv. Also, all that time that could be used for doing something productive and probably learning new stuff and experiencing new things is completely wasted. I use to spend a lot of time playing video games, luckily though, I've grown out of that stage for some reason or another, probably because the time I would use for that I use working out now. Even in that field though I am lazy because I never get myself to go running or to do any cardiovascular or leg training outside of water polo and swim practice so I don't get in as good of shape as I could and I fear that could affect my playing time next year. |
