what defines me

The object that defines me is a sponge. The purpose of the sponge is to soak in liquids as well as to use the liquid for cleaning. The reason for my metaphor as being a sponge because I soak in knowledge that I am unaware of.  A sponge is not biased to anything. However, The sponge is not naive.

To be honest, I can not doubt anyone for their belief. The information that is soak in I keep it with me. Personally, I do not want to be the person to doubt someone when they are right. Recently, I misspelled the world weird, and another person told me that is the incorrect way to spell the word. I want the proof that the word was spelled incorrectly. The person looked it up in the dictionary and I was wrong.

Another example of soaking in information for the better is the talks I have with the older generation. I feel as though I gain respect from many people from the older generation. during those conversations, the topics are involving the new generation of kids. To sum things up, the new generation is a disaster. Kids doing what they want, being spoiled, and talking back to elders. I admire the people who see how different I am from the rest of the new generation. I learned alot talking to many uncles, aunts, and cousins around Philadelphia. Even though the older people did not like how the new generation formed at least they did not classify me as a spoiled rotten kid.
