Emotions

  Recently, we began to read the book The Stranger. The main character of the book reflects a personality seen in few books. He is an emotionless person who takes life for what it is. He shows little attachment and interest in people and what they have to say. Although, he displays this emotionless persona to people as readers we have an inside look at to what he really is thinking. He seems to give people the benefit of doubt. Why shouldn't he help them? People seem to feel as if he doesn't care, but in reality he has no reason to. It makes us question our relationships with people. Does what we say always reflect how we are truly feeling? Some people rely on the words of others to reflect on certain people's opinions or feelings towards them. Words really have a lot more value than we depict.
