Where do new ideas come from?

I believe that new ideas can broom you brains and experiences you had in your past life. This might happen anywhere. New ideas come through thinking and brainstorming. For example, earlier people used to think that the world was flat and you might fall off from the edges. Later, when people came up with the idea or hypothesis that the world cound indeed be round, the idea would have been dismissed as a stupid idea. Many peole would have commented rudely, like "What an idiot" etc.. However, the idea turned out to be a reality as figured out and established by Christopher Columbus, and people did start believing in the same. Not all ideas can be flawless. There are many ideas which have a flaw and others which do not have a flaw. Thus, it is experiences and facts that establish or turn the idea to reality. We should not just dismiss the idea for the reason that it sounds strange. We should explore and try to prove it right or wrong with a scientific approach.

Favorite short story

What is your favorite short story from our unit? What makes a good story?

During the unit of short stories, we read three very interesting short stories - The Sniper, Lamb to the Slaughter and Thank You Ma'am. Although I liked all the three stories I very much liked Lamb to the Slaughter as it had very interesting ideas and the two climaxes kept me spellbound. Lamb to the Slaughter is written by Roald Dahl. It has the sensations of suspense. The story is very clear to me and very easy to follow as it is written in a simple language. I also liked the theme of the story " People aren't always who they seem like". Mary Maloney seemed very nice but she wasn't as she had killed her husband. This story therefore really surprises me in a very simple way about how Mrs. Maloney gets rid of the evidence. The most interesting part of the story for me was where where Mary Maloney had fed the Lamb to the Police. I had hoped to have read this story earlier in my life.
