I am representing this in my mask with an eye on the forehead showing that I have a different perspective of viewing life (through Elisa Carbone's writing). Even for me it is hard to believe that the biggest part of my identity was shaped by just a single book, though if I come to think of it many people’s identities could have been shaped by a single book. This is one of the biggest parts of my identity and I am definitely never going to change it. I have read this book more than 20 times, and because of that, I have realized the true meaning of happiness.
Considering that the future does not exist, fear itself does not exist. and he says that in life there is absolutely nothing to be afraid of because fear is always fear of the future and that you are always afraid of what might happen in the future. At one point in the book Critter is talking to P.K. But I only fully understood what the writer was saying when Critter talked about fear.
Throughout the book, the writer brought up more and more examples. When I was first reading it I did not know what the writer meant by how only the present exists and that the past and present do not. My identity has most definitely been shaped around this book. In the book he says that the future and the past do not exist, and that only the present exists.
Along the way Critter (the boy) teaches P.K. It is a book about where two teenagers who (one of them escapes from a psych ward and the other runs away from home) meet up at a rock climbing gym and decide to run away together to go on an awesome climbing adventure. There is a book I have called Jump by Elisa Carbone. The looking-glass self is only a small part in my socialization and the shaping of my identity. This has made me want to change my identity in some way, make it “better.” Though throughout my life and through my perspective of what I wanted my identity to be I have realized that one person’s identity is no better than the next person’s and that everybody is unique in their own special way. For example, I have seen and heard people say things about me and give me positive and negative sanctions for things I said or did. I have incorporated the concept of the looking-glass self into my mask to show that it has been a big part in my socialization. How we view ourselves, how we view the world, and how the world views us is a very critical part in realizing what our identities are, or what we want our identities to be. Our looking-glass self is very important in the cycle of socialization. “…there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”
