To kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

What made me buy the book – the title of the book

What I liked about the book – the interpretation of a story so serious, from the eyes of a girl



Who will I recommend the book to – someone who’d like to know what times we used to live in, and what times are we living now

What did the book teach me – there’s nothing above a human’s personal conscience

Behind that lens

So this little fellow decided to peek through the selfie camera to see if he can see what’s behind the glass.

Isn’t that how some people are? Unable to enjoy the moment, ever so curious to know how it happens?

When something un-natural happens, the elders credit it to the unseen forces that they call God. A simple idea really, takes the load out of your brain. You won’t have to work your brains out to decipher the truth, you can let it all happen and deem it to be God’s will.

Inertia.

And there was this one human somewhere in time who couldn’t digest the fact that the Gods would have time to make something this trivial happen. They had far greater things to do, like write destiny or defeat the demons.

So the human sought to seek an explanation. And the human did manage to unravel the mystery.

And then the human’s mind dared to ask, ‘what if God is waiting for me to do his bidding? What if God is like a binge eater watching me live, waiting to see what choice I make’

The human decides that the idea is too incredulous.
