And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee. daniel_wightman https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441432 2016-02-25 23:51:50 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441432 Who or what shaped Judith Wonga's identity? daniel_wightman https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441478 2016-02-25 23:52:32 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441478 Who or what shaped Nelson Mandela's identity? daniel_wightman https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441498 2016-02-25 23:52:46 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441498 "An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind" - Ghandi  https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441537 2016-02-25 23:53:14 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441537 Identity - The set of characteristics by which a person or thing is definitively known as https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441560 2016-02-25 23:53:35 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441560 we are all in some way guilty of deliberately isolating ourselves to some degree https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441574 this is because we often separate ourselves from other people in every day life and do not build bridges with all other people but rather just a select few]]> 2016-02-25 23:53:54 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441574 https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441612 No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent - John Donne ]]> 2016-02-25 23:54:29 UTC https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441612 daniel_wightman https://padlet.com/daniel_wightman/4dbwfm7iol26/wish/97441754 I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

Man's life is independent. He is born not for the development of the society alone, but for the development of his self.

The unknown future brings thoughts that relate with feeling empty or useless. This movement then leads us to blocking people out, forcing ourselves into where we feel comfortable, and not vulnerable.
