Furthermore...

I am glad that things are getting done in our blog, but for more clarifications, I would like to shed some light on what is still not understood:
1. The hyphenated living is not necessarily just a question or dilemma of cultural race, but it can also be of being torn between beliefs, between opinions, from yourself and what is commonly acceptable, or what is expected to be done. Relating to the post prior to this, the hyphenated issue in it is the writer's decision of being different, which is I expect, not that acceptable for their respective belief. The writer is in between that unchartered space of acceptance and individualism. -That is what can be one of the many faces of hyphenated living.
2. It is our goal as well to find this issue in the fiction stories we tackle at class. recently, I was able to find a good one, the matter involving Jason at "Hey Nostradamus!". Jason, in short lingo, can be identified as: believer-pessimist. Just comment if further elaboration is wanted.
Again, I am willing to aid for more clarificatons regarding this theme. And so far, we are doing a great job.
