Its not just the fact that it connects people but that it connects people of two different lifestyles; sometimes people that wouldn't connect any other way. What made me think of this was that i watched the USA national basketball team visit the Westpoint Academy and it got me thinking. Also, in different countries a lot of times when people out of country visit they can connect easily with the people through a sport like basketball.<br />This brings me to my question of what is the thing that allows basketball, or any sport for that matter, so connectable? Why and how does basketball have the power to bring so many people together?<br /><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06153079196168473621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51068492166300237.post-3900649031269473242014-10-02T18:54:11.374-07:002014-10-02T18:54:11.374-07:00Hhy do i have synesthesia?

I've found that I really and truly love listening and making my own music. This got me thinking. Is it really hard to make a successful career in music? I don't necessarily have to be a singer or play the guitar, I think it would just be fun to be a music producer. I already have some experience in music from working the sound board for my churches band every Sunday and at practices. What other positions are there in the music industry that I may be successful in? It may not even be a career that comes from music. Even if it was just a side job that made my day a little better, I think it would definitely be worth it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17611923732996048419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-51068492166300237.post-27311076401365168962014-09-21T23:50:36.918-07:002014-09-21T23:50:36.918-07:00What is considered a successful life?

Philosophers like Aristotle and Ayn Rand used a system of metaphysics for basic proofs on the world around us. However insane and ridiculous notions are omnipresent about the nature of reality from time to general existence. Opinions and hypothesis always point in different directions. But is there an objective way to be certain about anything? If so can it be used to further falsify other unanswered mysteries in our world.

Did we change our wardrobe? How would we handle certain situations now compared to when we were a freshman? Do we look at school differently and understand the significance learning actually has on us? Do we look at life differently? I have these questions that intrigue me because now I'm putting myself in this experiment. I sit back in astonishment and reflect on all 3 years I've completed, asking myself these questions with curiosity... Am I the only one?
