USEFULNESS OF MUSIC
 Have you ever experience a child screaming and shouting like an insane and telling their parents not to turn off TV or Music Player? “Is Music a Good Tool for Health? Excerpted from “How and Why Is Music a Good Tool for Health?” by Elizabeth Scott state music is a good tool for health. Researchers have found out that music has a profound effect on human body, mind, and soul. Nowadays music has become a powerful tool to taking care of many diseases. Scott states it is no surprising that music therapy has becoming more popular because it has powerful effect on our body and soul. I understand what is Scott said about music therapy. I have experienced music therapy usefulness. I believe music therapy helps people to get relief from many diseases because music has powerful impact in our body, mind, and soul.
My father used to depress a lot. My father couldn't sleep because he had lost his job for a simple reason. We couldn't even sleep because he didn't behave normally. Always we were worried him that he was going to start insane again. We have a big extended family and my father was only member who had full time job. So he had the responsibility to manage all expenses. He stressed a lot because had the responsibility in our family which caused him lost his mental balance. We brought him to the doctor who was a mental specialist. He observed my father very carefully and told us to keep him happy and play music in the house when he started behave insane. So, when my father started crazy we used to play music in our home which my father used to listen when he was normal. It worked. After couple days my father became normal and be able to get back his job again.
In 2008, I went to visit my cousin who works in a child disability center. Most children there were had attention problem. When I went there the atmosphere was very clam and charming. All the children were slept in the song. Suddenly the electricity went out. It is normal in our country to have blackout because the productivity is not enough. After couple minutes all of the children started screaming and started fighting with each other. The environment become very noisy and crowd. I became impatient because I couldn't take anymore. I was almost leaving and fortunately the blackout gone. Similarly, it took only couple minutes to calm that atmosphere. The children became normal and stooped fighting. As Scott mention in the article I experienced that therapy how it works to take care of children with attention problem.
Not only solve attention problems, it also helps patient to make place in the society. Last year I saw a TV show called “Indian Got Talent” where I saw a contestant who had attention problem but when he performed I was amazed to see his performance. He was better than other contestant. There was some judge music composure who offered him to work with them. He then told the audience that music kept him alive. Without music he wouldn't be able to live.
In conclusion, music has strong impact in our life. There are many way music help us to relive from stress, diseases. I love music so much and without music I couldn't even imagine how my times pass. I think everybody should listen music because it refresh our mind and gives energy to work faster.

 THE ALLEGORY OF THE CAVE by Plato, Translation by Thomas Sheehan states the prisoner didn't be able to recognize their old fried face and tune who were freed from the cave because they never see the light. the prisoner only see the shadow which passes through in the front. they never experience outside of the cave therefore whatever the freed prisoner told didn't make sense to them.

Nature of working individuals and groups

Do you react differently when you are in groups and alone? “Individuals in Groups” excerpted from book “In Groups We Shrink” Carol Tavris states people respond differently when they are in groups and individuals. In the same situation people get two different outcomes nature of groups and individuals. Psychologists call this “diffusion of responsibility” or “social loafing”. Tavris also states the groups become bigger when they joint a group and individually become lazier.  It seems true to me because people think they should come out with a result based on everybody opinion. In my experience I act differently when I’m by myself and when with someone else in a group.

             last week I went to a restaurant with couple of my friends. It took us half an hour to order our food. Nobody was telling that they liked to eat. The same restaurant I use to go and it takes me a minute to give an order because I don’t have to wait on other people to know that they want to have it. As Tavris point out that people take long time to make a decision when they are in groups. When they are in groups individually think that everybody should have responsibility among of them. Therefore, individually expect that someone will response first from their group. So everybody think the same way therefore it takes time to come out a result. 

            In 2008 I was traveling along with couple of my friends. We saw a big crowd and we went there to see what happened. We saw a woman was laid down the street with very badly injury. Neither, I or my friend didn't come out with a result what we should do. Suddenly a man was crossing with his bike. He just stopped to see why people were gathering there. When he saw that woman, he just grab her on his arms and gone to the hospital. We just were looking at him because he didn't even hesitate to carry her to the hospital. He made quick decision because he was alone and didn't have to ask anyone what should do. That didn't mean that weren't have present of mind. We just waited to make a better decision. We were thinking because we were in groups.

            In conclusion, it is nature of working differently when we are in groups and individuals as also Tavris mention. I get faster result when I work any specific objective of myself and different result at the same objective when I’m along with someone.

“I Know the Truth, So Don’t Bother Me with Facts” Jeffery Kluger excerpted from In Time states people easily believe make up story by providing false picture or information and it is very hard to denies the true facts. In the new study, Professor R. Kelly, and Erik Nisbet did a research among 750 people and they came out with two output. One group who easily believe in false story by seeing wrong picture and they don’t come back after get the fact, and another who are fewer number people willingly change their decision after know the true facts. Some people even become stronger after get the true fact may be simply they do not want to say that they are wrong.  I strongly agree with the outcomes that came out in the research. I think lot of people don’t even think before react something on it, they just make decision based on what other people tell them or view picture.

            People who have less education don’t even try to know the facts. A lot of people easily believe other people statement because they are not interested to know is it true or false. “it is easy to manipulate people’s believe systems with insinuating picture or inflammatory quotes”  these mean it is really super easy to motivate someone to do something bad by showing picture or religious story. People who inspired don’t even judge what they are going to do. These people usually hurt other people by attacking them. For example, in 2007 when 911 happened a lot people were attacked due to religion facts even though they weren’t directly involve. These attackers don’t even know the true facts who actually did the damages. Especially that the Muslim people were injured or killed most. It’s been almost 8 years gone but still a lot of people are angry with Muslim people. 

            Another group of people don’t want to change their decision simply because of losing their power. This group of people always wants to get advantages from others. They usually used other people to gain their targets. They knew that they are doing wrong but who cares. They need power and they want to do get result in favor of them. It doesn’t matter to them if other people damages by their action, words. In our country the politician do this always. They misguide general people to get their power and general people don’t even realize. Another group of people who even know but still support them because they also gain profit by supporting them.

            In conclusion, I agree with Kluger that a large number of people do not even know the facts before doing such bad reactions. There are some people who know the facts but don’t want to say that they are wrong due to losing their status. Their goal is to deceive general people by showing insinuating picture.

                                    Watch up people what’s new!

            Commercial plays an important role in our modern society. People have many different reactions about ads. People have positive and negative both response about advertisement. Have you ever thinks whatever new comes in the market, at first how you know? Possibly by ads. It can be TV commercials, billboard ads, or ads that are on the public transportation platform and inside the busses and trains. Guess what! Apple bringing in markets the latest IPhone next month. Are you excited about to buy that? “Hype” Kalle Lason states commercials create the most mental pollution in these days. From the beginning of your day when you get up from bed and until going to bed you keep watching ads at somehow. She said you couldn’t find a place where isn’t displayed ads. Ridding public busses, trains, or driving by your car through the cross country after certain miles you always see billboard advertise. Watching TV shows without commercials not possible. These days some companies also advertise their products in public schools too. She also mentions that when she was a child she used to song Ninth Symphony song and nowadays the kids play Oscar Meyer Wiener song. Although commercials plays around me a lot of mental pollution, I think it’s also keep informing about the products what comes new at the markets.

            Advertise helps people to keep balance with modern society. In this third world people are too busy with jobs, and family. People have no extra time to look after new products what appears at the market. In this situation ads play a positive role. Everyday a lot of people ride by public transportation. Therefore, when they see ads in the bus or in the train or on the platform they can judge about it. For example, I saw T-Mobile ads on the seven trains and it says that people can have new galaxy S4 who has plan with T-Mobile by just renew their plan. As a result, a lot of people can get benefit from it. 

            To get succeed in your business there is no alternatives of not doing advertise your products. Suppose you are business owner and you produce new produce. Then you need to inform you consumers that you have new products for them and TV commercials, billboard ads will help you to carry your message to your consumers. Also you have to be wiser to make decision to place your commercials in program. You have to be very careful about placing your billboard advertisement. If you can’t then your business will be at risk and would have risk to going out business.

            In conclusion, Lason mention that there isn’t a place where’s is no ads and day by day its growing more and creating more pollution. I do not agree with Lason because advertise keep informing me about new products and give direction to get succeed in business. The only things we need to set up our minds to manage these situations.
