What i expect to learn: How did the Japanese culture relate to this review? And as to what explanation Mary Migley did
Qoute: “If there were really an isolating barrier, of course, our own culture could never have
been formed.”
In Japan in the past there is what we call wielder of blade and those who fight using these wielded blades. And to wield one’s blade should be sharp enough to cut through a bamboo so that it can cut down a enemy at the battle field or a confrontation. And to know that a wielder or what they call a swordsman should test this before entering the battlefield and in Japan they are to test this by passing by a unknown person and cutting him in half just to know how sharp the swordsman’s blade is. Well in our modern life we really shouldn’t try this or its criminal charges that we’ll face but this has a point in our daily life we should be practicing as to what we apply in the battlefield or in a confrontation because we should know as to what it might take effect to other people who will go through our sharp sword or our moral values.
We should know that every action has a opposite reaction so that we should keep practicing on whatever we tackle everyday so that in the end we will not go to mistakes.
What I’ve learned:
I’ve learned that we should practice our moral values often so that no one would be cut by our sharp moral acts and in the long run help us on applying this moral value.
Integrative Question:
- Aside from cutting down other people with your sharp moral value how can you practice?
- How did Mary Migley compared the culture of Japan to applying it in our moral value?
- What are you insights with this review?
