Seeing Is Believing In The People Could Fly By Tomsoni

Is Seeing Believing?

Have you ever seen a magic trick? A magic tricks involves a distraction so the magician can do the trick. Sometimes magic tricks involve illusions, so seeing isn’t believing. I do not believe seeing is believing because not everything you perceive is true like ghosts and magic acts.

Not everything you look at is real, somethings things are illusions. One example, in the story “Magic in the Brain” Tomsoni says he will change the color of a woman's dress from white to red but, there is invisible wires taped to the dress. Instead he distracts the audience and the wires pull the white dress off the woman showing a red dress she wore underneath it. This proves that magic is an illusion. Other example, in the story “The People Could Fly”, Toby said some magic words and the slaves grew wings to began to fly away. This is illusion because because today people can’t fly and can’t grow wings. Finally, in the story “A Christmas Carol” Scrooge, the main character sees the ghost of the Christmas Past, Future, and Present but, when he woke up he realized he was dreaming. This is shows the dreams are sometime illusions. Some things real sometime are not, in the end somethings could be illusions.
For example, In the story “Heartbeat” the main character looks bigger but, he really wears a bunch a shirts. This just goes to show that people sometimes change the look of sometime to make it seem better. Another example, In the story A “Christmas Carol” Scrooge’s employee Bob is late and instead of yelling at him Scrooge gives him a promotion. This shows that Scrooge was actually a nice person not a grouch. Finally, In the poem the “Song of a Wandering Aengus” when the main character catches a trout and looks at it again, it becomes a woman! This is proves that things might not be what they really are. Things are not really the way how you see
