I found the "right to your opinion" text really empowering. I think that everyone should speak up to what they think is right. As I saw someone comment on the post I also feel like people should be more open minded about giving their opinion because it matters a lot. after reading it I feel like I should speak up and be less shy because we all have the right to do what we want. it shouldn't matter what people think about our opinion.

I think the poem Richard Cory is really depressing. In the beginning the poem was happy and how everyone wanted to be like him. then in the end it said how not everything was how it seemed in his life and he committed suicide. his situation reminds me of robin Williams and how he seemed to have it all, seemed to be a really happy man to despite the money, fame, "happiness" nobody really knew what was going on in his life until he committed suicide then people started to realize that  nothing was what it seemed.
