Some may say that their passion is music, some say their passion is sports. My passion is the one that ties every passion together: creativity. I would hate to live in a world where everyone or everything is the same. Everyone has their own style, talents, way of viewing the world. If we were without that I would never want to wake up in the morning. Like in my favorite book "The Perks of Being A Wallflower", the main character Charlie reminds me a lot of myself. He sees things that are strange, things he's never seen before. These strange things fascinate him because of the fact that its different, or creative. It shows him that its okay to not be like everyone else.
Everything we know of derives from creativity. The beginning of a T.V. series starts with someone's idea for a show plot, laws come from ideas of everyday people, every singer has a different voice and sings for a different genre of music. Dancers create their own choreography, just like basketball coaches create the team plays. These ideas all come from someones creative state of mind. The English language is creative itself. Creativity surrounds us from the day we are born throughout the rest of our lives, and it helped us to develop into the society that we are today. That is why creativity is my passion.

The reality of reality
The book we are reading is is called Fahrenheit 451. The beginning of the book, the part that we
started reading shows a lot of what their world is like. Their world is a lot like ours in a way. The
media and its society has a very significant effect on everyone's mindset. While everyone should have a mindset of their own, they don't because of what is going on around them, and same thing with us. For example, if we see a celebrity with designer clothes on, the rest of the world who idolizes these celebrities will want to wear these designers themselves. The media and the government want us to be completely oblivious to everything, using things like laws, or even television programs. Reality television shows keep us entertained with foolishness about peoples "real" lives, and we seem to be okay with that. It keeps us from being knowledgeable about what is going on around us. People in reality t.v. aren't even a glimpse of what the real life is like. Television producers and casting directors do enough research to understand what will entertain simple minds, and it works. Despite their family's riches, their money just seems to add up because of the people glued to their T.V. screens watching their shows.
