Socratic Seminar

The socratric seminar we had today in class was not too eventful for myself, but interesting none the less. The conversation seemed dominated by two individuals discussing the difference of the freedom to think what you want, and the right to your own opinion. I can't blame them, as I did not add anything to the conversation. I could have changed in it a bout of words between simple language such as the subtle but important differences between right and freedom, a very important fact to note. Your thoughts should not so much seem to be an entitlement, but rather tools to use to accomplish actions. When circumstances change, the tools must change to fit the situation, and so go thoughts. They should be a liquid form of substance, not static such as solids, but not as free and hard to control as a gas is. There must be balance, as in all things.
