This article poses three major questions. 1.) Why do things in society go together? I view society as a willow tree. There is the trunk which represents the major building blocks of society, government, corporations, military, and people. Off of that trunk we have branches and they represent small businesses, jobs, and family life. All of those things are minor components to society as a whole, or the bigger picture. Without the trunk of the tree those branches wouldn't be there.
2.) Where does this society stand in history? Each and every day I feel as if our society changes as a whole. We excel in certain areas and struggle in others. After all "Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it."- Winston Churchill This relates to the article because in time we've realized that relaxation is just as important as our work.
3.) How do men and women prevail in today's society? Both men and women in today's world are supposedly given equal opportunity. I must say though that us women have been given a false start due to the cruel men of this world. All people were created equally therefore both women and men should be given the same job opportunities. In today's society we have more women enrolled in medical school than men. This just goes to show that we are not only as intelligent, but that we are diligent workers.
This compares to my life because I know what it's like to be treated differently. In 2nd grade I chose to play on an all boys baseball team. Not only was I made fun of for playing with the boys, but I was told I'd never be good enough. I proved all those boys wrong the second I walked onto that team. Not only did I look good while I played, but I showed up to practice every day with a smile on my face. My coaches were willing to work with me and soon enough I was just as good as all those silly boys.
