Starting the week out by looking at trails wasn't what I had in mind and yet it wasn't all that uncomfortable. It was interesting to see that there were forums dedicated to pictures of what people were calling 'Desire Paths'. Learning that although it seemed completely unconnected to what we were learning, the paths themselves were a literal representation of our own individual desired paths. This was key to discovering our own big questions and although it seemed silly at first, in the end, the activity really was pretty fun. The book I picked out, The Alchemist, turned out to be like the best book I've ever read. I normally hate books like that but wow it was amazing. Every single page seemed to give more insight on what life is and how each of us should pursue our dreams. It felt like everything in life was becoming more clear for me through reading the book and as crazy as that sounds, this book, it has wisdom in it that is beyond anything that I could ever comprehend. The complex simplicity of it really gets to people and it was actually pretty cool to see other people in class getting just as excited for the book as I was. I can't wait to see what kind of this I believe papers are going to be written after everyone finishes their books.
