Well my instincts are fine
I had to learn to use them in order to survive
And time after time confirmed an old suspicion
It's good to be alive
And when I'm deep down and out and lose communication
With nothing left to say
It's then I realize it's only a condition
Of seeing things that way]]> 2019-02-05 04:39:47 UTC https://padlet.com/jeremygroeneveld/ezkbip0l356p/wish/327623469 jeremygroeneveld https://padlet.com/jeremygroeneveld/ezkbip0l356p/wish/327623718 In this TEDx Talk from Maura Malloy in Indianapolis, she talks about her experiences in which she describes her past life as being cluttered and full of possessions, until she decided that she doesn't need all of those possessions after traveling to India and seeing many children playing without all the toys  American kids have.]]> 2019-02-05 04:42:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jeremygroeneveld/ezkbip0l356p/wish/327623718 jeremygroeneveld https://padlet.com/jeremygroeneveld/ezkbip0l356p/wish/327624470 Caption: "Learning is just experience.

This reflects Thoreau's beliefs of non-conformity because, in the play, he said that it is impossible to please everyone and still show that you have strong feelings about something. ]]> 2019-02-05 05:57:12 UTC https://padlet.com/jeremygroeneveld/ezkbip0l356p/wish/327629384 jeremygroeneveld https://padlet.com/jeremygroeneveld/ezkbip0l356p/wish/327629699 An opposition politician in the Democratic Republic of the Congo has called on his millions of followers to conduct a peaceful campaign of civil disobedience following the rejection of his appeal against election results by the country’s highest court.
