I think this quote could mean a lot of things to many people including myself. I think when kids are little they are destined to find out something that they should not know and keep it to themselves. Parents can not shelter their children from finding out things that their children should not know as well. The kids may hear something from someone or even when seeing something from watching t. v. When I was little I heard and saw many things that I probably should of not heard. I saw effects of what alcohol could do to some people. I did not like what it would do to the people I loved. It hurt a lot of people in many ways and not just me. I saw what would happen when people would become addicted to getting that "high" feeling. It scared me a lot to think that just some simple things could change people that I loved into terrible people that I do not know who they are anymore. I never really talked about it to my parents because what would they of think. Those events have shaped me into the person I am today; not wanting to be the kind of person they are.

Paper Towns
If I got a chance to choose a book that I think everyone in the world should read is Paper Towns by John Green. The book tells about a boy going out of his way to find a childhood friend of his that he loves. This boy, Quentin, did anything for this girl named Margo. He stoop to distances that anyone would not really think about doing for a girl. Quentin skipped his graduation, made his friends think he was crazy (for an amount of time though). Quentin and his friends took a trip out of their state to find Margo, even got in a car accident. When they found Margo, she told them that she did not want to be found and left alone. They could not believe after what they done for Margo. Especially Quentin, he could not believe what she was telling him. I think the book showed that people will do crazy and dangerous things for love. They will go distances for someone they love and find out that it was for nothing. I do think that everyone should love until they can not anymore. Not everyone will get loved back. It will hurt like a ton of bricks, but that should not stop one from loving again.

Extrovert or Introvert?
I have still came to no conclusion wether I am a extrovert or introvert. I am a extrovert most of the time. I do love hanging out with my friends. People tend to be either very lovely or very annoying. Sometimes I just need to hang out with people to be happy. I do depend on a lot of people for happiness even though that is an extreme no. When I am alone I tend to just ponder on sad thoughts. I just tend to be around people when I am sad. If I am very annoyed I tend to not want to be around anyone. That is when I turn to the introvert stage. I just need to be alone and collect my thoughts to be calm again. I am completely introvert if I am around people I cannot stand. In other words I am completely sociable when i am around people I love. I have come to the conclusion I am neither and just maybe a typical person, maybe, but I tend to stay alone a lot. I do like being alone, but I do not like feeling alone. I lied, I have come to no conclusion. The world would not be better with either just introverts or just extroverts. I feel if there was mainly introverts no one would talk about their feelings. I do not think anyone would be able to do many jobs. When it comes to some particular jobs like real-estate you do have to be straight forward and a bit harsh to sell houses. If the world contained just extroverts, I do not know if everything would be okay. It may be better, but I do think everyone having different personalities is better.
