Class was started by asking the question “why is indentured servitude illegal?” None of knew why other than the fact that it is the law. While it was interesting that one of us knew why I thought the reason why was far more interesting. We have developed different selves. We now have a self that agreed to do the job and a separate self who does and hates the job. I agreed to work at Laser Quest, I agreed to work until 12:30 am; however, when its 11 pm, I want to go home. I have two selves. I also thought it was interesting how new movies show this. I never thought it was weird that, in movies, we saw things from so many different points of view. When movies first came out, scenes were shown from one point of view at a time because that’s the way people viewed everything. However, because of the new division of selves we have, we understand the different points of view newer movies have to offer.
The idea of having separate selves was something that I never thought of but it made complete sense to me when I heard it, as if I was already aware of it.
