Evil Blog #12

I believe in both. I know it sounds weird but I believe that people are born evil and learn to be evil. There is this situation where ive been through with my "evil" cousin. Every since we were little she treated me like crap! It's like she had the mind of a Devious, mellicious 34 year old and we were just babies. Babies arentt suppose to know any better! But then what makes me believe that some people learn to be evil is because I grew up nice and shy. By the time I reached 6th grade I started acting like most of the cool kids that use to be around me and where i stayed. There was Fighting, arguing with teachers, and compulsive lying. I did it because I wanted to be cool and I had no choice. I didnt want to be an outcast or in other words "lame". Now I wish that I never done those stupid things then maybe I would be a better person. I believe that if you were raised right it would be fine. Some people are born harmful because I know for sure I was. I think people grow out of it. Naturally.

#8 What's love got to do with it?

Song of solomon is all about love. what makes love so complex?

In the book of Song of Solomon, love is very complex and hard to find. A prime example is macon's wife Rose. Eventhough she's treated unfair and not treated the way she's suppose to be treated, she still stays because she feels that no one would want her because she's too old. In this situation, love is complicated because she can't leave the ungrateful,selfish man she's married to. Even if she does leave him she would have no one. Pilate on the other hand, seeks love and won't allow it to happpen. Pilate is still stuck in between childhood and reality which is growing up. She feels that if she dates anyone her dad will find out and she would be judged or treated unfair, so she tries to avoid i. Love is complicated int his situation because she wants someone to love but can't have it because she doesnt want anyone to know. In this book, love defines, haterd, darkness, and betrayal. Love is very complex in this story because its hard to seek and hard to get through the tough times.
