Hw - 34 Initial Thoughts on Birth

Initially, my thoughts on Birth are the limits and responsibility that are bestowed on an individuals life. Some of the responsibilities shape a person's outlook on their future life, others become more focused on the "now" of it. The split Birth causes between a individual separates where this person stands in the present and where they will be standing in the future. Generally speaking, one could say Birth can be represented as a catalyst that shifts how a person's life ultimately turns out.

Furthermore, Birth is also a celebration of new life. For the women and men who endure the 7-9 month battle, come to a end of appraisal, bringing fourth one of their own. Having a child, one could say gives that person a sense of purpose because now they are focused on the jobat hand by caring and naturing 24/7. A sense of ownership is entitled because of the ultimate decisions you have over what needs to be done to care of your child. It's almost like being the owner of a business but without the late night crying and yelling.
