Dog 2 Dogs

There are some people’s opinion that you would rather not hear and then there are those that you agree with. Through all of those opinions are those that make you think. If you have read any of the writings of Raj Patel you know that he is one of those writers that make you think. After reading some of his work you can see that he sees things as they are and from a different perspective then you are programed to see them. As I was reading I actually thought as many times as I had heard what he was talking about I had never “really” listened. Reading his work has definitely made me open my eyes to a different view point of reality. If you think about it prices are set on things and that price becomes the value. That then becomes it’s worth to us. This is a very deep thing to analyze but it does make you rethink things. I have read a book before about how people are obsessed with naming everything so we can fit it into a space in our minds and these writings remind me of that in the same thought provoking way. I love to read things that have a fresh way of seeing the same things we grow so used to that we do not actually see them. It keeps us on our toes so we do not get too comfortable. If we get too comfortable then we may loose what makes society great and that is the melting pot of thought provoking people. You can win a copy of the book written by this writer at the Macmillan press sweepstakes.
