"We tend to sabotage the very things we care most about."
Many people would agree with this because everyone has had this experiance before like when you buy a new pair of shoes the first few days you take care of them but after you start playing sports with them and run in the mud with them. Same thing goes for women some guys in certain countries kill their wifes or run away after they are bored of them and find new wifes. Some people decide that their lifes arent worth the trouble and let go of the stuff they love the most or has the most value cause they need the money.
At the same time i also disagree with the quote because many people go under so much stress and pressure but it does not affect their mood or their daily life routines. Pressure and stress are all stuff that can be controled. One example is from the curious incedent of the dog at night. The main character chris went into his own little world when ever his parents would fight or argue and he completly zoned out wich many people would do when in that situation.
On the discovery channel I was watching a documentary on apes and their was a battle going on between two different species of apes. While their were battling one of the baby apes was getting beat up by this other ape and the mother came and stepped in and got killed and her child was safe but still injured. Unfortunately most humans wouldn't react like that. Most humans would think of there own welfare before even thinking of others. This isn't because humans are evil and do not think of other's, this is because our brains think in a different way.
We sabotage the things we care about the most because most of the time, we don't even know it is there. For example we say we hate our parents, yet truthfully they care for us and tend most of our needs. We have all something we sabotaged and most of us are afraid to tell others. This is a main reason the situation never gets better and family and friends grow further apart.

ReplyDeleteI am confused by your argument here Mortaza. Every time I think I understand your point the next section throws me off again? I am not sure I agree that Christopher's handling of stress but disappearing into himself (a common behaviour for people with autism) would be considered handling pressure well? I am totally lost by the nature channel reference as one of the key concepts we discussed was to socially created experience of stress. It also doesn't seem to support the quotation at all? I appreciate your attempt at structuring your writing, but we need to continue to work on clear and concise support for your argument.
