The Uncontrollable Force

People would like to believe they can accomplish everything they want in life. In reality,
it is just a positive way of thinking. It would be nice to believe that a person could do
anything if he puts his mind to it, this way of thinking is not reality. People are victims
of greater forces. The force is not a force of God or magic. The force are our
environemnt, our Biological instinct, and our inheritied characteritics. This philosophy is
called naturalism and it is used in oneil's play "Beyond the Horizon". The phliophy of
naturalism has its merit and affect real people everyday. Naturalism affects the way
people live and the lives they affect.

One of the major factors of a persons life is his environent. A persons
surroundings affects how they live, how they think, and how he sees his own life. Sure
America is the land of oppurtunity. But not everyone has the same oppurtunity as others.
A person living in the Ghetto seems to have less of it than a person living in a rich
neigborhood.

A young boy could be at the top of his life. He is ready to conquer the world. He
is ready to go to west point to study to be the best soldier in the world. When his
physical come back they tell him he has a weak heart. He then finds out he got it from
his father. It is nice to believe that a five foot hudred and fifty five pound boy could play
in the NBA. But his chance are slim to none. Michael Jordans son has a better cance
than makeing pro than anyone else. Just like how a rocket scientist son would like to be
smarter than everyone else.

This way of thinking is very negative but is true. We have very little control of
what happen to our lives.
