Most people ask questions that can be easily answered if they take time and think. Most of the time that people show traces of not using common sense is when they don’t take time to think. The ability to think allows you to pass the point of just common sense and be smarter than that. ]]> 2021-10-19 14:39:28 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827430735 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827443708 I do not believe that only loners need time away from people. Everyone needs time alone at some point in time. Having time to yourself helps you to grow yourself, it doesn’t mean you’re a loner or don’t have friends. Life can get very overwhelming and sometimes taking time away from people to relax is what everyone needs. ]]> 2021-10-19 14:42:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827443708 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827451336 The statement that I agree with the most is that most people don’t have common sense. I think that most people lack common sense because if you give most people a new problem that they have never faced before they will have no idea how to even start or attempt to correct the problem ]]> 2021-10-19 14:45:01 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827451336 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827453072 Older people have important lessons to teach young people. This is very true, we need to listen to our elders. Cause they are more wise and have more experience most of the time. They have had time to go through life and they will most likely have the answer to most questions you have. That’s why people say to respect your elders and listen to them.]]> 2021-10-19 14:45:30 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827453072 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827462987 I agree most with the statement that “The way I live my life effects other people in ways I don’t understand.” As I feel that I do things everyday in which I don’t think about how it has effected someone or something down the line.]]> 2021-10-19 14:48:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827462987 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827466450 Who I am is constantly changing I believe and it’s something out of my control. I believe that everyone is, we’re constantly evolving. I believe it is also out of our control that we’re changing. We as teenagers don’t have control of what life might throw at us, but we do have control of how we react to different situation which is what change us. ]]> 2021-10-19 14:49:03 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827466450 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827479146 I strongly feel that majority of the people today are so clouded by the things today that common sense is non-existent. Few can think for themselves and most don’t think at all. Things that are simple to figure out or situations that are avoidable are problems because people don’t think about it at all. It’s mostly due to selfishness and their inability to be wrong. Most people need to do things their way even if it is bad for them and others, they don’t care because they think they are always right. This leads to them never figuring anything out and that’s a crucial part of common sense, because learning from mistakes is necessary. ]]> 2021-10-19 14:52:27 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827479146 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827506413 Most people don’t have common sense, i agree with this statement because most people lack the ability to correct a problem or do something and to think for themselves]]> 2021-10-19 15:00:02 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827506413 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827510611 I do not agree that people who are loners only need time away from people. Everyone has a social battery and sometimes needs time to rest from people. People social batteries are different but that doesn’t make someone a loner.]]> 2021-10-19 15:01:15 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827510611 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827510952 There is a part of me that believes that being outside defeats depression. The reason I say this is because it gets you out of an enclosed space around trees and fresh air just makes you feel like you have freedom. When I lost my brother to a car crash I didn’t know how to feel and going outside really helped me learn to accept the reality of the world and just to breathe. ]]> 2021-10-19 15:01:21 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827510952 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827511067 Most people don’t have common sense, i agree with this statement the most because most people cant think for themselves or solve common problems]]> 2021-10-19 15:01:23 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827511067 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827513123 I feel that art and poetry aren’t the highest accomplishments in mankind. I think that mankind has accomplished way greater things such as building cities and developing ways to transport. Art and poetry are great accomplishments, but we have accomplished way greater things than that. ]]> 2021-10-19 15:01:58 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827513123 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827518795 Art and poetry aren’t the highest point in human achievement maybe it was at one point but not now as it was surpassed by more impressive things. ]]> 2021-10-19 15:03:31 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827518795 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827521395 I agree with the statement, “Most people are unhappy but pretend like everything is ok.” Because I’ve analyzed my surroundings and the people in my life and everyone seems like they are unhappy about something when you learn about the deep dark side of them. A lot of people are able to act happy or content but then later have their ‘social battery’ depleted and feel drained. Sometimes even when someone is sitting alone they get trapped in thoughts and everything that they’re unhappy about comes crashing down at once. Unhappiness seems very common within each and every human being because no one is completely satisfied with their life but even so, they continue their life normally. Some people will express their unhappiness once in a while to a friend beside them while others deal with their unhappiness alone or just let time pass to “forget”.]]> 2021-10-19 15:04:16 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827521395 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827535233 I Agree with the stateement “The answers to my problems have been written about in a book somewhere.” Books have been made for thousands of years containing the writers problems and how they bettered themself. Someone in these thousands of years had to have had similar experiences and problems throughout their lives.]]> 2021-10-19 15:08:08 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827535233 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827535795 Only loners need time away from people. I think this statement is false because everyone needs to be alone sometimes. We all get overwhelmed and need time alone to think and clear our minds. This does not identify you a loner, it just simply means you’re parting yourself from your social life to benefit your peace.]]> 2021-10-19 15:08:17 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827535795 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827538162 I am constantly changing as a person but sometimes it can get out of hand. I think it’s good that we change as a person growing from mistakes that we have made and it’s good to develop into a better you. But there is a point that we can start to think that one is better than others because they know more or they have seen more as a growing person which can ruin them.]]> 2021-10-19 15:08:59 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827538162 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827542605 I agree with the statement, “The way I live my life effects other people in ways I don’t understand.” No matter what, you are going to have an impact on the people around you an there’s nothing you can do to change that. The things you do can and will stick with people for the rest of their lives; people will make choices based upon things you’ve done or said; you will love your life according to yourself but according to the environment you live in and the people you interact with. Humans are ever-changing and ever-growing. ]]> 2021-10-19 15:10:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827542605 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827549013 I think most people don’t have common sense because they don’t have to think about anything because technology provides it for them. Everyone is surrounded by information that they don’t have to figure out/ find out on their own. It’s just given to them without thinking]]> 2021-10-19 15:11:57 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827549013 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827551979 I agree with the statement “most people don’t have common sense” because just look at the world. A lot of people don’t think.

Spirituality is developing the self and the soul, just because science is becoming more relevant doesn’t mean that spirituality isn’t as important.]]> 2021-10-19 15:13:10 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1827553336 https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1828767713 I do not believe that only loners need time away from people. I think that at one point everyone feels drained after socializing for a certain amount of time and they just need a break to themselves. Just because you prefer to be alone doesn’t mean those who chose the opposite don’t need alone time too. ]]> 2021-10-20 00:12:46 UTC https://padlet.com/sullivanlr/gonlzpvf3dutbm67/wish/1828767713
