    This was definitely one of my favorite videos we have watched in TOK, because there were so many concepts that have begun to open my eyes to bigger thoughts and issues. I really like wahat @taylorheckman wrote about boundaries. I was very intrigued with that section as well. I have often thought about laws and morality-- if something was wrong but legal would that make it okay? I know that some boundaries are necessary, but many are not necessary to the extent we have them today.

    Another section I enjoyed was 8:18 when he talked about the importance of talking to people in random places throughout life. Bottom line-- you cannot make it on your own. You cannot live in a bubble all of your life and the one of the best was things to experience things is through other people. You can learn from them, build off their ideas, collaborate, and develop knew ideas/questions. Some of the wisest people I know learn new things every day by talking to random people. This section really made me want to start conversation.... I am good at talking to my friends, but have never done well with starting conversation with strangers. Now it seems almost unusual not to. Take a plane ride for instance? I have often gone 9 hours without learning much more from the person next to me than their name and place they are coming from. Everyone has learned something you havent, and it is incredibly importance to share thoughts, as Fry said "Sharing things is the benefit of life."

    I thought it was very interesting when Wilson discussed the fact that when you are faced with a decision, you start to use logic rather than go with your gut which often times has the best radar. The group of people that chose their poster based on instinct liked what they picked a lot more than those who needed to describe why they liked something first.
