I AM HUMAN

What do you pops into your head when someone askes you to define a human? If you asked me i would say a human is a living breathing person that has feelings and makes mistakes. If you look back on your life and think of all the mistakes you have ever made you can hopefully also think of all the stuff you have learned from them. If you're a robot, well, you probably can't do that can you. In my personal view on life, a human uses ethos, pathos and logos in everyday life, contrary to a robot . If you're wondering what ethos, pathos, and logos is, are you even human? Well just incase you are a human that just doesnt pay any attention in english class, ethos is the character of someone, how they appear to you, pathos is how someone can connect with someone else's feelings, letting them see how they feel, logos is credibility, like the evidence that is provided. Now just sit back and think about that. Robots don't have a character, they are designed for a single purpose, and only that single purpose. Robots also don't have feelings, they don't develope feelings like they do in the movies. Theoretically, If you were to ask a robot, for example, why is the sky blue? It's response would be respond  "because it is." ( circular reasoning ). If I where a robot would I have a beating heart or organs that without I wouldn't be alive to write this. Not to mention, a robot is made out of metal and would probably have a really hard time going through airport security. All in all, a robot has no emotion, no regrets or wishes, no dreams, and  no room for error. I am the farthest thing from a robot.

My Argument

The argument I admittingly started was with my brother. We had a disputation over the reasoning I had for believing swimming was a more competitive sport than football. He believes that football is more competitive because the team has to run down a clock to score point for there teams. I believe that swimming is more competitive because it is not a team against a team, it is a human against a human. Each member has to individualy push themselves to there limit and if they don't then they are letting themselves down, which is worse than letting other people down in my observation. We came to an agreement that we both had valid points (which was not easy) because we saw what the other person saw, not just there own point of view.

What Jiro Means to Me

I believe that Jiro is an incredible person. He is a hard worker and he is always striving to do better on whatever he is working on. Jiro said in his interview "Always look ahead and above yourself". That really spoke to me and told me how much Jiro really cared for the work he did. I look at Jiro and I see someone with drive, someone who will stop at nothing to accomplish what he wants to accomplish. In this generation it seems fewer people are as determined and ambitious as Jiro. I mean don't take this the wrong way, some people in my generation have great ideas and ambition like no other, but there just isn't as many as there used to be. We all need to just try a little more and work a little harder and great things will come out of this world. Jiro has worked very hard to be were he is and with the amount of comition he had coming in around the time this documentary was made, he could be traveling the world, but he's working in his kitchen because that is what he has the passion to do. Now I'm not saying that we al nerd to be kicked out on our buts at a young age but we need to have the motivation and drive like we just where.  It's people like Jiro that show you why you should want to be a better version of yourself.

Jiro Dreams of Sushi

"Dedicate your life to mastering your skill." Jiro shows complete and utter focal on his dream. He knows what he wants and once he had it he kept building on it. He wants to get better and better, he non stop pushing himself to reach his full potential. In most instances once a person reaches the success level jiro has, they stop. But most people don't get the push off the cliff into real life, experience he had. In my case I don't know what on God's great earth I want to do in the future, but that's the fun of it. When you try and try at things and you fail most people stop. But real success comes out of that one accomplishment through all of the failures. Now me and Jiro may be very very different but one thing stands the same, if we both want something enough we don't stop until we've obtained it and mastered it.

Something I Learned

When asked to learn something and post about it, I though well, that could mean many things. So I then after a while said what thr heck, ill cool somethimg. So today after school I deside that I wanted to learn how to cook something new that I have never baked before. My grandmother suggested an apple crisp, basically an apple pie with a crumbly top. So that's what we did. And might I add the end result was quite delightful.
