Connection of assignment 1 to Image and pilgrimage in christian culture 10/7

 In Image and pilgrimage in Christian culture, the authors talk quite a bit about "mere mortals" which means one who is not god. I felt like a mere mortal while I was writing this paper because I had a very tough time writing this paper. I eventually found my way a couple of hours into writing this paper. I find that a common theme while writing papers, I start out having a rough time and as soon as I get the hang of it I glide right through it. Overall this is a great way to think about things like this because nobody that is living now can prove that they are god.

September 6, 2022: Reflection on Appalachian Trail research essay and connection to Landscapes of the Sacred

 I had a difficult time starting my essay due to procrastination and confusion about the whole concept of the essay. I reached out to Dr. Redick during class and he explained it which helped out a lot. As soon as I was ready to start my essay I reached out to our peer mentor who is Jacob. I met with him at Einstein's and he helped me grasp the concept of the whole thing. I then had a much easier time writing and editing the essay due to his help. I finished in about a day and a half and I had an idea. I thought it would be a good idea to consult Jacob again about my essay. I sent it over to him and he had a few ideas of what I could add to make it better. I fixed a few minor things and took Jacob's advice and added the few things that he suggested. I thought I did pretty well with writing it and PERSEVERING through the confusion and frustration that I had experienced. Connecting Landscapes of the Sacred to my time writing the essay was difficult, but I found a common theme betw...

Buffalo shooting reflection (outside reading) 10/25

 I read this very controversial topic in the manifesto that the Buffalo shooter wrote before he committed this horrible crime. He was being extremely racist in his writing and talked about all race's wrong-doings besides white people. I found this very interesting and wrong. I wish I could see where this guy was coming from, but it is hard to play the devil's advocate when the person is the devil incarnate. He had a few very interesting topics that will make you think about what is going on in this world. Overall this was very interesting and borderline disturbing to read.
