Music Synthesis Essay
In today’s society music is all around us. Music penetrates our lives and resonates throughout civilization. For the entire course of the history of the earth, music has existed and evolved. Music is definitely a big part of my life and if my life was a movie, the soundtrack could be comprised of many songs, but I chose only three. I chose these songs with a combination of attention to the lyrics as well as my personal taste in music. There are definitely songs out there that I enjoy more than these but the lyrics capture my life and would go well in the soundtrack of my voyage. My first selection would have to be “Thunder” by Imagine Dragons. This song kind of goes along with “The Nights” by Avicii, which will be expounded upon later. “Thunder”

    The topic of Source One is how explorers and colonists of the New World took part in horrific, illegal events to colonize the foreign lands, but yet they were not the ones who suffered from these events. This phenomenon is portrayed in the source through the image of a wanted poster for Christopher Columbus, where Columbus is wanted for several offences including: genocide, racism, initiating the destruction of a culture and rape. The poster also goes on to state that the reward for Columbus is “500 years of tourism”. The reward symbolizes how despite the atrocities that the explorers and colonizers took part in, they would be remembered throughout history for their accomplishments and not the horrendous events that brought them to those successes. The illustrator’s perspective on the source is the idea that colonizers of the New World were…

    Moral obligations can be seen a variety of different ways, depending on the person. Some may think it is a person’s moral obligation to submit to a law even if they believe the law is wrong. Others think the opposite, if a person believes something is unjust why would they follow it. Everyone has a different point of view and after reading The Scarlet Letter by Hawthorne, The Letter from Birmingham Jail by Martin Luther King Jr., Laws Scarlet Letter by Korobkin and Lyceum Address by Lincoln, it is important to follow ones conscience. This may seem unjust, but is it just to support an unjust law? This is where the controversy comes in, and why after reading these three types of literature, the idea of supporting something unjust is completely wrong and breaks down the justice system.…

    In the face of adversity, the beliefs of an individual may be greatly altered, or even liquidated, leading to the lack of execution or bad behavior. Even if a person with strong beliefs and morals is put into a difficult and unexpected situation, they may completely and unwillingly disregard their beliefs and morals and act accordingly, or not at all. Around lots of people, when bystander apathy or diffusion of responsibility is present, the individual may be affected by it as well. In Night, Elie knew that his father was “on the brink of death, and yet [he] still abandoned him” (Wiesel 11). Elie had prayed to the “God in whom [he] no longer believed” to never abandon his father, yet at such a difficult time, he simply did it (Wiesel 97). In the Perils of Obedience, the subject, Prozi, first “[refused] to take the responsibility” because the subject was in there “hollering” (Milgram 23). Immediately after the Experimenter said that he was “responsible for anything that happens to him”, the Prozi simply said “all right” (Milgram 23). This proves that the majority of people in a difficult situation will simply wait for somebody else to take responsibility for any wrong doings, or lack of action at all. If the experimenter remained silent, Prozi would have immediately stopped, knowing all responsibility lay on him. In the face of adversity, anyone’s beliefs can be changed, either because the individual is dumbfounded and doesn’t know what to do, or because they know that the responsibility of something horrid, is not…

    "One person's craziness is another person's reality"(Tim Burton). In this quote, Tim Burton is pointing out that people have our own reality. Philosophically, reality is whatever we think or perceive. There is no true or real perspective. Our perspective depends on our morals and beliefs. All our life, we perceive knowledge and information through different forms of language. Hence, our perspective is also limited by the language. Language is one of the unique things that people have. Language puts limits on our thoughts. For example, when someone says dog, we all picture a different dog, therefore we perceive the information differently. Similarly, religious books influence the way of our thinking through the words or language in the book. Those words are ideas of someone else but we get so influenced by those words that we base our morals on it. Words are part of language which fixes an image in our minds. When we say dog, we picture a dog, not a lion or fish, because we are imprisoned by the language that we ourselves created. Those words in the biblical texts are from a perspective of a different person but we believe in his/her words, borrow the idea and we make our own beliefs which is still inspired by someone's perspective. Those beliefs define the world around us. Thus, through language we create our own limited world and imprison ourselves. Likewise, in the excerpt Cosmic Prison from the book The Invisible Prison by Loren Eiseley, the author argues, that human perspective is limited by language, culture and origin.…

    When thinking about the soundtrack for my life, the songs and lyrics that would best suit my life story, unfold before my eyes. Starting with a song by the Judds, titled Grandpa; reminding me of my early childhood, in which my grandfather was the biggest influence on my life. The lyrics of this song reflects what he had endeavored to teach me. He taught me right from wrong and about keeping promises. There were many occasions he would tell stories of his experiences to impress upon me valuable life lessons. Most important of all he taught me to love myself and others; that love was an important part of life and not something you throw away. He raised me until the age of eight years old; as my parents were wrapped up in the lifestyle not suitable…
