Nobody has to get rid of the highest human aspirations, emotion is something that cannot be eradicated, and instead they encouraged addiction or dependency to keep the members of the society in line. He also acknowledges the sacrifices that have been made to sustain deceptive contentment. Mond views John’s desire for freedom as the desire for unhappiness; the controllers of the World state scarify their citizens in order to gain happiness and stability. Soma shorten the life expectancy, but it doesn’t prevent the government to give it to their citizens because the key components to the society in Brave New World are stability and happiness; so they must do anything in their power to make it happen.

Every human life is worth the same and worth saving.” Therefore, there is no difference in our value because of our gender, our age or our ethnicity but what differentiates us all is our ability to make decisions in our lives. It is what we choose to do with our life that affects how we perceive the value of it. In author Lynne Soraya’s article, she discusses a touching story about a young boy born with a life threatening disease who was able to inspire others to live their life without fear of death, and without fear of pain in the short amount of time he lived. Furthermore, he has gone on to motivate others even after his death, to seek out the awaiting opportunities, and to live without fear of the unknown. We all have the ability to make change in our ... ... middle of paper ... ...t’s not how we got here that makes life valuable, it’s the impact that we have made thus far in this world that does.

The individuals sacrificed their identity to make sure that everybody was able to survive, advance, and live a life of happiness. When there are limitations on behavior patterns in a society it can restrict one's ability to be truly happy in every aspect.

Loss of Freedom in The Giver The Giver, a book written by Lois Lowry, questioned my ideas, thoughts and beliefs. The novel describes an ideal society, in which everything is supposed to be perfect, with all life’s problems solved. It is all about being happy with what the people have and not questioning their life styles because they did not know the difference between good and bad. The people are denied of their preferable way of life without their knowledge of how the real world is supposed to be. In the real world, I live each and everyday to learn and gain freedom as much as I can.

However, life is too short and unexpected; you would die tomorrow or the second later. Therefore, The Bet signifies that everyone should not need to fight over pretty things like money and power because it’s learning that makes man valuable not the money (knowledge is power and money is imprisonment). Everyone just lives to the fullest and appreciate every slightest moment, event, thing and people who appear in their life. Even that moment is sorrowful but every suffering has some meaning in this world that helps us to grow and develop our unique identity, overcome obstacles and treasure ourselves with others.

Some may think that success isn’t for them. Other may think it’s way too much work just to say they were successful in life.But you have to think do I want to have all the nice things in life with no one by my side because I let media take over instead of following my own heart? Or would you rather feel confident, have all the nice things, and still have all your supporters and family by your side due to actually following your heart? Becoming successful is not easy at all and it takes time, and not many are truly successful.Success is a honest goal to strive for. Nobody becomes success in a blink of an eye.

Philosopher-kings are in power by virtue of their wisdom which the whole community acknowledges as a requirement to rule effectively. Philosophers do not even desire to rule, but do so because the law commands them to. Education and employment are available to all, men and women alike. There is no concept of family, because women (in the context of child birth) and children are shared in common, and the rulers are responsible for a child’s upbringing. Private property is apportioned for the sole purpose of the producers’ need of it for the production of society’s needs.

They will end up being successful if they have the best of both worlds in my opinion because they won’t get tired because they have very strict parents or have parents let them do anything they want. One day those parents that let their children do anything they want regret they ever did. Basically be on top of everything your children do during their lives but also don’t ruin their fun when they are having it. Help them understand why they are being pushed so hard to accomplish certain things.
