I think it is part of human nature to constantly compare things to be better or worse- it comes from an evolutionary advantage we possess that allowed us to quickly decide what’s best for survival and wellbeing. So, comparing ideas, objects, and people is a natural response to seeing 2 different things. I have felt that I was better than someone hundreds of times in my life. It is a daily occurrence. However, this has never stemmed from an ego that I try to fuel by making myself feel superior, it is my perception of a fact that I can clearly see. For example, if a friend and I were cooking the same dish and their dish comes out tasting significantly worse than mine, the first thought I would have is “I’m a better chef.” This doesn’t mean I’m invalidating their entire human experience by saying I’m better, it means that I am better than them in one aspect that they could very well improve in.

I have equally felt less than someone else. Not because I’m insecure of my standing compared to them, but because I have flaws and aspects of life that I can improve in. I may be a good chef compared to my friends, but standing beside my mother, I feel like whatever skill I possess is minimal.

If everyone were the same, there would be no individuality. With this, comes a society that doesn’t grow. Innovators, artists, producers, thinkers, inventors wouldn’t exist because there would be nothing separating them from everyone else. The power we hold as a society is a direct result of our differences and acceptance of the fact that millions of people will be better than you at one thing and worse at another. Therefore, it is absurd to feel that you as a person are a better human than someone else: “Better than” is not a term we can use to compare humans; functionality varies across thousands of things a person could possibly do in their life.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The solution was that Linda used the "naked audience" technique that her friends showed her so that she could be less nervous. In the begginging, she was really nervous and couldn't calm down even when breathing. Then she tried what her friends said about imagining the audience naked. She laughed and thought it was funny. After that, she was calmed and wasn't nervous anymore.

In what ways is “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” similar to or different from a traditional love song, and what does this r
tia_tia [17]

The poem is a revisitation of a traditional romantic love song which is altered in order to present a critique of the sentiment of a classical liberal education. Modernist poetry, as such, is meant to express the challenges of progress, the struggle to come up with new ideas and criticism of old patterns of thought.

The refrain which goes ¨In the room the women come and go, Talking of Michaelangelo¨ frames the symbolism of the urban setting describing the emotional context where Prufrock reflects on modern existance. This is meant to emphasize the day-to-day existence that is the focus of the truly modern thinker.

The criticism of a classical form of education is stated most clearly in the following verses: ¨To say: ¨I am Lazarus, come from the dead, Come back down to tell you all, I shall tell you all¨ - If one, settling a pillow by her head Should say: ¨That is not what I meant at all; That is not it, at all.¨.

The biblical theme of the resurrection is brought up to poke fun at the preoccupation in canonical forms of education with studying the ´cornerstones´ of European culture without having a context relating them to the issues and concepts which are important in the contemporary sense.
