This chapter I can actually relate to! The voice of reason makes me think of my teenage years along with my years in college! Reflecting on my own life, I can now realize why my parents did the things they did. Growth within is made me who I am today, without the issues and problems that I come across and figured out, I wouldn't who I am today.
The two women in this chapter I can relate to, both of them. When one finally opens their eyes fully, then one will see why and realize that what they are learning is for their own good, not for the teacher or the parents. I look back at my parents and why did they do the things they did when it came to me, and now I know and I only hope I can be as great of a parent as they were to me!
Listening to your invoice is not always right, but don't stop listening to it, just don't always act on it! Feelings are wonderful and learning how to control them is even better. Naomi was having issues about writing a paper on a painting, what her instructor really wanted and when it stated " You can like a piece that someone else doesn't like, and you have to decide yourself" (p.89). For me this is true about anything in life, just because my friend or my husband likes something doesn't mean I have to.
In previous chapter they discussed subjective knowledge; this chapter was about procedural knowledge. Procedural knowledge pays attention to objects in the external world. For me, I would have to say being able to understand what someone else is wants and giving in to that person, but not letting go of my own personal ideas and thoughts throughout the process. Everyone has opinions whether we like it or not, just sometime it is better off not speaking them.
