Nothing is off limits!
This is a hard concept for me to respond to because there isn't much I wouldn't do if a situation called for me to step in. Something that has been difficult for me to handle is when my friends are going through something that I would never allow for myself. For example, I have a friend who lets her boyfriend treat her very badly and no matter how much advice I give her, she doesn't listen to me. It's like she has to go through it herself and learn for herself. This makes me feel like I have to be a patient and supportive friend when I really want to tell her I think she is being a fool! It is hard for me to keep my true feelings in; holding back is against my nature.

we've got to fulfill the book...
Society is like the shape and build-up of a house, and experience is everything that fills the house to be original.
In my field of vision, I feel that both society and experience go hand in hand to create the individual. First, society gives the individual the sort of boundary lines of what one should be like, or the "normal" person. Society is what influences the individual to know what is right and what is wrong throughout life, unless an individual rebels against those rules.
Experience is what one is full of, and all that belongs to you and only you. Experience is what one builds off of, from the past, through the present, and into the future of life.
