Blog 2

I found it interesting to read about Plato's transcendent truth and that the truth is hidden but we've known that since we were born. I feel that this is true about pretty much everything in our lives. We choose to believe whatever we want. Whether someone has taught us it, or we disagree with someone's opinions. When we communicate with people, we gain pieces of their personality. We take those pieces to form our own opinions and ideas about different topics. Whether it be politics or religion or what kind of music we want to listen to. We take this information and we form our own ideas. So to say that our ideas are predetermined by the life we lived before is interesting because I could, in some way, believe it. The idea that our opinions and ideas are constantly evolving only makes sense because everything has evolved so fluidly. From speaking, to writing to combining the two... I don't find it that far fetched.
