getting lost in localized mind.
Franco la Ceclas essay about the idea of getting lost in a culture and place and how its basically impossible to to struck a note with me for various reasons. For one i rarely ever feel lost and because of that i feel there is room for me to grow, o have heard from many accounts that when your lost you learn more about yourself and life than any other time. this article directly relates to out time in Italy, the group we have been a part of and how we have fit into a culture far different from our own. at the same time that i feel this way i also contradict the authors investigation by saying its as if your trying to kick a dead horse. that things are the way they are and looking to change this manner of human nature is futile, yes opening it for examination, for people to know where our current system roots from is inter sting and bears many resemblances to travelling and the idea of loosing ones self. yet in many ways it feels like the writer is more or less a historian with a singular view on how we have shaped our current orientation towards direction and sense of place.
