this video explains how culture shapes us and our bodys. It makes many good points and good ways of thinking.

# data[].attributes.body
Everyone's culture is different in its own way. New generations especially, teenagers sometimes dont know what rules they want to follow, what things they like, what they want to do, what they identify with. People in the past seemed to just always go along with what they were born into and would follow their family. Kids, teenagers, and some adults even now really just do what they want and be who they want to be and not who others want them to be.

Iv never really understood culture it always has been confusing to me but somethings that me and my family do are Christmas, Halloween, and thanksgiving. I don't have a religion i just believe what i want to and what I don't want to. I dont eat many different foods but the one food I eat all the time with my family is pasta. Music is something i love. I really like all sorts of music besides country.

the way social media could shape our world 

# data[].attributes.body
Social media makes new ways for people to communicate and might become eventually the only way people will communicate unless they are face to face. Businesses and important people dont even need to get together and have meetings anymore they can just use zoom or use messages. Sadly that might be what the world comes to. With social media it changes peoples views and opinions all the time. It practically shapes people and makes people the way they are.

# data[].attributes.body
This video talks a lot about how social media effects your health and it does. Social media can truly drag people down with seeing all these fake pictures and videos and thinking bad about yourself due to them. Social media really can have such a bad influence on people including me most of the time.

Technology effects life in many ways in my life it has helped me make friends with social media it gives me something to do when im bored it also gives me an easy way to communicate with people. Social media also has many bad impacts based on personal experiences i know people are able to post what ever they want about you really. People could use social media to bully and hate on others and thats a negative impact of it.

engaging with people of different beliefs 

# data[].attributes.body
Sometimes it is hard to engage with people who have different beliefs. One person can be more dominate with the way they think and just end up not liking you for your own thoughts. Based on personal experience I have met people who are open to hearing new ideas and thoughts and accepting your beliefs. I have also met people who do not care what you think and just think their own thoughts are correct and should be the only way the world thinks. Trying to engage with people of different thoughts/beliefs is always a good thing though you can hear new ideas even if you dont agree and try coming to a understanding.

ways my beliefs and values impact my life  

# data[].attributes.body
My main values are my loved ones, friends, and my pc. The way these things impact my life are by helping me stay happy and get me through hard times. The way my beliefs impact my life is sometimes not the greatest me and my family have completely different beliefs so sometimes there are fights on that. Other ways my beliefs impact my life are good thought like being able to make friends who feel the same, or being able to help people that I believe deserve the help, and so much more.

# data[].attributes.body
Things that influence my beliefs are social media and my friends. With having social media I see a lot of different opinions and a lot of new ideas and sometimes I agree with them and will end up sticking to that belief. Me and my friends all really have the same beliefs so when they believe something its easy for me to believe as well.

The governor of Illinois has more power than an average person of Illinois. J.B Pritzker has the highest power in Illinois he makes rules and we have to follow. That is power

# data[].attributes.body
The steps to power are becoming a strong smart person. You have to listen throughout school and show people you are not afraid. As you get older its best to get more confident and be your own person or you will have no power really. Find a job and work your way up to manager, become a one of the smarter people in your grade,and many more things will show you have power.

# data[].attributes.body
A way someone can acquire power is by being smart and having a lot of knowledge knowing what to do in a situation. The people around me who have higher power consist of my parents, My teachers, My grandparents, and my older friends.
