Just think of it. Imagine today you have absolutely nothing going on. You have an entire day ahead of you but there is nothing you need to worry about. Your body is on a routine. Your mind is on a routine. It would be pretty monotonous.
We often do not realize how fast time is passing by because we are busy dealing with things. But imagine if we didn’t have to? Life would go slow.
Since there are problems, we instill gratitude in our minds. But if we had everything and absolutely no problems, gratefulness would never be something we’d consider. We usually realize the importance of things when we don’t have it with us.
Apart from that, our development would be lagging. I say this because so many amazing inventions have been made because inventors spotted a problem and thought they could fix. Similarly, as humans, we may not be motivated to do stuff ourselves.
Motivation is different for everyone, but let’s say you didn’t have to think of becoming independent, many would lose their motivation to find a decent paying job. Challenges in our life builds us up as a person and I feel like even our personal development would fall behind.
I do think that may be people wouldn’t stress if life had no problems.
In life, we are the problem solvers. Everything is a problem if you think of it that way but at the same time, nothing is a problem if you take it that way. But human nature is such that we find ways to create problems even if it does not exist. What a problematic life looks like to us could be someone else’s peaceful life.
Life without problems wouldn’t be like life at all and it definitely wouldn’t a roller coaster ride with a story that’s worth telling.
Answer:
I disagree with the statement that "Crooks is NOT a victim of racism". This is because, the possession of books, furniture, and having his own room doesn't give him the freedom to mingle with the other ranch hands. Rather, they keep him alone so that he won't be among them, and they won't have to be near him.
Explanation:
Crooks is the black stable buck in John Steinbeck's "Of Mice and Men". He lives alone in the stable and not among the other ranch hands who stay in the bunkhouse.
The statement that "Crooks . . . is NOT a victim of racism" is not true. According to me, even with all the personal possessions (own room, furniture, and books), his living quarter is in the stable, with the animals and not with other human beings in the bunkhouse. His statement to Lennie <em>"I ain't wanted in the bunkhouse, and you ain't wanted in my room</em>" is evidence of how class/ race disparity is there even among the workers. He also added <em>"They play cards in there, but I can't play because I'm black. They say I stink."</em> This clearly shows the division among the workers, though they are all under Curley.
Therefore, it is <u>wrong to say that Crooks is NOT a victim of racism</u>.
