Address of David Foster Wallace

After reading the sparking address of the famous writer David Foster Wallace to the graduate of Kenyon College in 2005, there really are a lot of thoughts came into my mind.And the most impressive one is that when we believe something or regard something like a “truth” in one given situation, there may be no problem, and then how about put these beliefs in another situation? Will they always be true? maybe not. Just like a same gesture may have totally different even opposite meaning in different culture, some beliefs which you think is always right is not a free pass all over the world.

 Many Americans hold the view that it is our right to keep the gun and gunpowder legally.However, stroke by the cruel gun shooting in Denver and other gun shooting in the history, now I strongly don’t agree with the Gun amendment. The truth is although everyone can have a gun; it will add the crime  to those harbor evil intentions people and most of the normal cannot use the gun to protect themselves effectively. It is just a simple example, but I really wish that we will suspect and doubt and rethink those so called “truth” one day.
