Quotes of the Day

Hello Guys
Here are TWO more quotes ,I have just found the best app to make them and I am soooo exited!!
I hope you like them!!!:)

Let Us Speak

The night has come

but you can't see the stars,

the day is gone,

but you still see the sun.

You watch the sky

and you hold tight,

you listen to them

when they pass by,

they talk to you

you fake a smile,

you see the world

with different eyes,

you feel, sometimes,

that you're alone on this ride.

You wait in line,

to get inside.

You take the ride,

you close your eyes,

just your mind,

is open wide.

You're going up,

you feel the vibe,

you're going down,

you scream so loud.

You think you're loud,

but you haven't been noticed.

And now your mind is lost,

'cause you can't see why you didn't stop it.

You felt the vibe, didn't you?

You knew what was coming,

but you went on and acted oddly,

maybe you were seeking something.

~N.S.

From Plato's Cave Allegory to "identity" to Summerhill....are we serious?

One must definitely wonder how a group of teenagers managed to start talking about Plato's Cave Allegory then watch a short film about Identity, discuss the problems of self-identity and finally end up talking about Summerhill!!!! Well, that's just us, the students of Anavryta High School at the age of 14, trying to make sense of life, trying to understand who we are...
After long conversation we came to the conclusion that our "cave", what restricts us and doesn't allow us to be different, to be our true self is NOT school as we originally said. School is not an ideal place, the educational system is far from perfect, yet we realised that the "cave" we are trapped in, is the "mask" that we are forced to wear or that we actually choose to wear. So, making a difference in the world is only up to us and how we can embrace our own personality and potential.
Nevertheless, since we love complaining about school, we have decided to research other educational systems, starting off with a rather radical approach, that of Summerhill, founded by A.S. Neill in 1921.
