Chopin and her obsession with nature

So i spent the last week debating about what to write about today. . . frustration... I was at an impass. . . then driving to school thrity min ago i saw the "funrise" and the sky was red. . . for those of you who have lived in spokane long enough you know as well as i do that we have about wenty four hours till it rains cats and dogs for three minutes and then abruptly stops. This reminded me of Kate Chopin's work. Every story of hers that i've had the pleasure of reading has had a direct correlation between her characters and the weather around them. I saw that red sky and thought ugh its an omen, i'm not gonna have anything to write about for this stupid blog assignment.. . then it hit me "wow i just found something to write about :)" most people feel a direct connection with the way they think and feel and the weather. i wasn't completly convinced of this myself until this morning and now i've become a follower

Right and wrong. . . When do we develope a sense of right or wrong? are we born with it? do we develope it from experience over time? The debate has gone on for centuries and will continue to do so until we have a method of proving one over the other. . . empiricism is a theory of knowledge which asserts that knowledge arises from experience. As an empiricist i personsally believe that at birth we are neither good, nor evil in nature but we are a blank slate that has yet to be scribbled upon by the firm hand of life experiences. . . If a child has not been told that altering the truth for his own gain is ultimately an evil deed, then does he know that what he has done is wrong??? of course not. . . to argue that a mind could conceive right and wrong without first being given a premise is complete lunacy. . .. . .
