From reading part 3 of Banach's lecture I think that what he was trying to say is that human happiness comes within you. Like how he use The Wizard of Oz and How the Grinch Stole Christmas to show that to get a brain,heart, or courage you have to look deep down inside you and find it. That someone can teach you how to solve a problem in life, how to love someone, or show you how to be brave but in the end it is up to you to use what you know what they showed you to do the best that you can. And that the Grinch was trying to show that life is not about what you have or the external things it is about the people you have in your life. So from reading that I agree about how it is in you to become great and to show what you got, but i do disagree about it is not what you have and the external things. I mean it not everything but it is something, because say someone you love or know died and had nothing, yea you are going to rememeber them because you cared about them but at the same time life has so much going on in that we forget about what we did yesturday so know's if you can rememeber what you did 10 years ago. So by them having something and them leaving it with you so that you have a piece of them every where you go. I just think that human happienss is knowing that we are all different so different things are going to make each of us different, and that as long as we are ok with that and see that no matter how hard we try somethings we do not see eye to eye on then we can all be happy and maybe that we can have human happiness that we are all happy with.
"Are we free?"
What is free? Maybe free to me is different then free to you. So how do we know we are not free? To me to be free is to be able to be open with me. To feel, think and do what I feel like doing at that moment. Maybe to my best friend she just want to think what she wants but not feel, or do what she wants, so I really don't know if we are free but I do feel that I and free. I feel that is am not able to do these things without someone telling me that I am wrong or try and tell me to feel, act, or think in a different way.

good job girl. i loke how you said you dont really know if we are free because what we do say or think can seem wrong to others.. its true our p.o.v. will always be different but also think about it you have to do what your heart tells you and do what you have to do. sure listen to advice but do what you think is right because sometimes people will missguide you in the wrong direction. and yes i agree hapiness comes from within and externally because as you said the external values play a role in our lives and it certainly is something. overall good gob =]
