the allegory of the cave is from a famous author known as, Plato.the story was very hard for me to understand but after taking a quiz and talking about it with mr.H and my fellow peers I think I have realized what the story means.The background of the story takes place in a cave. there is a fire with people surrounding it.Past the fire and there is a wall.past the wall the is i believe a hall way with marionette players, and in front of them there are puppets.the two main characters of the story is Socrates and Glaucon. there are also prisoners in this cave. I believe that the cave represents life and kind of being in a cave would be like our childhood and it shield's us from the cold world out there and other stuff we will probably never see.That's what the prisoners are for,i think that there us and were basically prisoners because were so shielded from everything when were younger and than we have to face it when we grow up.
Glaucon said "Yes,he said,I think that he would rather suffer anything these false notions and live in this miserable manner."
I picked this quote because not only was it the first thing i saw but i kind of thought of it as,that the guy is so real and realizes that this everything is fake and he's living miserable manner.which he rather suffer than be fake.

now im not sure if anybody is reading this but here i go.....
My name is Aaron Anthony Ramirez,I'm currently 18 and i will be 19 at the end of the year,
I just graduated from Pioneer high school,
I live with my mom and step dad and my sister,
my parents divorced when i was about 4 years old and i haven't really had a good relationship with my father,
my father stayed in Lancaster while my mother and my two sisters and I moved to Whittier,Im the youngest child and i pretty much grew up in Whittier,
in high school i found a sweet escape for me which was music ...but not just any kind of music but a certain kind called underground hip hop self independent music...now i got addicted like an moth to a flame i can never get enough.Now my whole life people underestimated me, in middle school they said i wasn't gonna be able to walk with my fellow peers and high school was just the same but i pretty much showed everyone different and that my friends feels really good. Well that's pretty much all i have to say for now.
Quote of the day:
I thank God at least I got to know what love really was
But it hurt me, to see what true love really does

Thank you for your time
