006 Lessing

Lessing shows the value of groups. We all live our live in groups, our family, work groups, whatever the case is. The article stated that people tend to not want to be by themselves sometimes. People are so used to being around others because that is just a norm for us and that is how life works. People get so used to being around each other where they always need to be around the person. Obedience to groups happens because people understand the difference between opinions and groups tend to lean towards someone else’s argument or opinion depending on what the scenario might be. He also mentions how sometimes being in a group can be hard which is oblivious of course.

I agree strongly with the need for groups. Most things in this world can be done in a group and that is truly a blessing. The best thing about this world is how much resources we have around us, if that is our friends, family, work groups and much more. The more brains, the more opinions and ideas that can develop into a bigger and better idea. He said that most people can’t stand being alone and that truly hits the heart. Being alone for me this year living on my own was tough and I can’t wait to move back home with my family, which is my group. When I am in my group, I feel so much smarter and I feel like I will always be fine because I will always have someone there for me if I need it, and vice versa if they need it.
