Decisions: Are you sure about that?


Frankenstein deals with a very interesting story about a creature who did not ask to come to this world. I really enjoyed reading this book because it is easy to imagine all the events of the book and relate them to real life. Why do I say this? This is because life contains all the words that we as students reflect in classes. Discrimination could be the first word that came to my mind when I finished the book. Frankie was discriminated because he was different. He was taller, stronger and his appearance was scary.


From my point of view, the main responsible or guilty of this entire situation was his creator Victor Frankenstein. He did not measure the consequences of his decision and all the problems that his lack of satisfaction could bring. He acted like parents when abandoning babies, and I think this is why Frankie was full of hate.

Sometimes we human beings do not think on the consequences of our actions or decisions. Due to the fact that we are not perfect and we commit errors, we have to know that if we make a mistake it is correct assuming the consequences and not to escape. At the end, our problems or errors will find us, and this is why we must face them.

First of all, remember this post deadline was Sept 13th, please try to be punctual with your posts...
Great ideas Salomon, it is true that as human we tend to make plenty of mistakes!!!!! The greatness is to accept them and learn from them, not to runaway like most people do mainly because they are afraid of the consequences... we as teachers are going to be kind of creators of our students’ minds, do you think we may be alike to doctor Frankenstein? Why?

Take care,
