Document Summary

After reading alsford"s work and understanding his thoughts about human beings, i decided that the human as social/ relational category was the most essential characteristic of humans in the u. s. today. In our current society, it is very important to know people and have relationships with people in order to progress both personally and professionally. In the professional world, the phrase, it"s all about who you know is often used to describe how to gain success. I think that this phrase really speaks to the category of humans as social/relational category and why it is so essential. In chapter 2, alsford references a philosopher named martin buber, who talks about the difference between an i-it relationship and an i-thou relationship. Today, people sometimes focus on forming i-it relationships, meaning they treat people and their relationships as an object or tool to get further in life, rather than forming real and meaningful relationships, which describes an i-thou relationship.

Need help please I have 287 words I need it to be 300 words the is below.

Nonconformity, to me, is a condition of being in which one has a sense of pride and poses about themselves. This is not to be mistaken with arrogance, but with a type of humility that provides certainty and clarity to decisions and actions. While reading Ralph Waldo Emerson's essay "Self-Reliance," I began to believe that what he refers to as nonconformity would be known as "Independence" today. This type of Independence is focused on one's ability to detach themselves from their surroundings, people, situation, and relationships. In this life, we are taught numerous things that are labeled, but no one ever questions why those labels are there. Thinking outside the box is frowned upon, and what we heard many times in primary school was "work the issue exactly as you see it in the back book, there is only one method to solve this problem," which seemed strange to those who devised several ways to offer answers. To me, the concept of nonconformity appears to be very essential since I feel that individuals require this level of comfort and independence to grow and never be molded or sculpted to the favor of others. Nonconformity, I believe, is the very thing that allows a person to be human and express their feelings, lifestyles, and liberties. While reading Emerson's article, I also understood that one should not surrender oneself to those who seek to dominate them and take away our authority. This provides that individual authority, which can stifle one's spiritual, mental, and physical progress. We should search for and try to be unique, never wishing to be like others, since we are who we are. We are all human beings in our own right.

“It’s saying you must include each of the following: nonconformist” Can someone please do this for me fix it up and btw thank you a lot

When we think of nonconformity, to me this is a state of being In which an individual has a since of pride and pose about themselves. This cannot be confused with being conceited, but modest a form of modesty that brings assurance and clarity to decision and actions. While reading ralph waldo emerson essay "Self-Reliance" । began to believe that what he dems as nonconformity would be known as today "Independence" this form of Independence is really focused on one's ability to detach themselves from their surroundings, people, situation and relationships. In this life, we are taught many things that are given labels but no one really question those labels as to why they are there. The idea of thinking outside of the box is frowned upon and what we heard many times in elementary school " work the problem exactly how you see it in the back book, there is only one way to solve this problem" in which to some appeared to be foreign to this idea and created multiply ways to present answers. The Idea of nonconformity to me appears to be very important because I believe people need to have this form of comfortability and freedom to grow an never be shaped or sculpted into the liking of someone else. I believe nonconformity is the very thing that enables an individual to be human and express those feeling, lifestyles and liberties. I also realized while reading Emerson's essay that one should not yield oneself to other people who wish to control them and take from us our power. This gives that individual power which can stunt one's growth in spirit, my mind and body. We should look and strive to be different never desiring to be like others for we are who we are. We are human in our own right.
