This week functionalism was the main topic. Manifest functions which are intended and recognized results from society and latent functions are unintended and not recognized consequences from society. I find latent functions to be intersting because when things are done to do good in the society, they have other results and effects towards society unintentionally. For example, school is an envirnoment that was created to learn, however, most people view school as a place to meet new friends and creat close bonds with. I relate this to be like idividual effects when you are talking or saying a comment to a friend or person. Your intention when expalining something or saying a comment to someone may be good but it possibly be interpretted as something different, therefore, creating other intended results. Something else that i found to be really inspiring is the Daffodil Principle Story, the mother was so surpised and amzed at the beautiful garden of daffodil's  and asked who had created such a wonderful materpiece. She finds out that one woman planted five acres of flowers with her own two hands, alone thrity five years ago. The mother was so astonished at the fact that the woman had planted every bulb one day at a time with no shortcuts, simply by loving the process of planting and loving the work as it was unfolding creating something beautiful. The principle that he daffodil garden taught the mother and myself as well is to learn to move toward my goals and desires one step at a time, learning to love what i am doing and learning to use my time wisely. By working towards our goals and desires one step at a time, it is an opporunity to creat wonderful things such as the daffodil garden and change the world; this is called the Daffodil Principle. It's never to late to start a new goal or a new desire. "The way to make learning a celebration instead of a cause for regret is to only ask, "How can i put this to use tomorrow?" Always strive to do more, never do less, and always do my best.
