Who is This Guy?

I think Mersault is just a confuse guy. He doesn't know his own feelings and he doesn't know how to react to certain situations. He seems like a regular guy and knows a lot of people in the neighborhood. But his attitude is like he doesn't care about nothing that goes on around him as long as he his living and doing what he has to do. I thought it was really strange the reaction he had towards his mother's death because usually when someone mother dies they would breal down crying and wouldn't believe it. But his reaction was like oh, she finally died it was about time she been living for to long. When I notice reaction it automatically told me that he has no emotion what so ever. I think making a character like this makes people question other peoples emotions to see if people are really like that in our world and really don't care for anyone but their self. I don't really understand what Camus is proove on what a stranger is by making a character that has no emotion and care more for himself than other people.

Do we live in a world that is meaningful and makes sense?

What I think about this world is that nobody notices what is going on really. If you go around and ask people that question, they would give you a answer but its a high possibility that they never thought about that question until we asked. But I don't think it is really meaningful because a lot of people would look at the world a different way and try to make things right. If they were to do that then it would make sense that the world is meaningful.

In the movie I think they try to give good examples about how the world is meaningful and I think at the end when Albert figured out what was going on made the movie more interesting. I think that because he finally figured out that it was a scam for him to realize he has to make his own decisions and not have other people try to make for him.

Manifesto

In our world today a lot of people are not sure on their actions or sure about why they choose to dp certian things and this is why I think sometimes I feel no one doesm't understand our feelings. I think life would be much easier or could be easier if we were able to read other people minds and if we were to know if our happiness is based on us or by other people. Also what I find interesting is that is our appearance the way we dress our the way people wear make up based on us or what other people think.


In this world there are different styles of the way you dress and different styles of everything you do in this world. This kind of makes you think about if our appearance is based on us or by the other people. "Other people only see us from the outside, objectively, and, hard as we may try, we can only see them from the outside." To me this shows that people could be concern about how they look because other people can only judge them by the way they look on the outside. So in that case they dress a certain way where they think people might like so they can judge them in a good way.


If people were able to read minds I think people would be able to understand eachother more and everything would be easier. Also being able to read minds you woudln' thave to judge people by the way they look you would be able to read their minds and understand why they appear like that. "No one else can feel what we feel, and we cannot feel what is going on in any one else's mind." Not being able to read minds makes the world the way it is now because we can't tell what people are thinking and can't understand their feelings on the inside.


In conclusion the way we live is not perfect and we can't make it perfect because of all the wrong things going on. But if we were able to do all these things I think we would understand life much more easier and me less to oursleves and be able to express ourselves more to other people.
