Individual Journal 1 (Community)


Community is a set of individuals that are put in a group based off of something such as location, interests, religion, or beliefs. A community can be a political party, a sports team, a college campus, or a place of worship to just name a few.  Inside of a community individuals are united by something. For example, at Florida State University everyone is a student of the school and for the most part live in Tallahassee. All the members of a sports team play for the same team and for the most part share the same goal of winning. The members of the given community do not need to have all the same interests or same personalities. A community could be a group of people writing about the same topic or a group of writers that write with the same style. Many people can find a community in writing. Whether it is reading the same novel series or writing the same style of poetry. Writing can also bring forth a community. Writing in novels sometimes makes people think a certain way about life. People who find similar meanings from writing can be seen as a part of one community. All forms of writing are part of one community. Every piece of writing is one’s way of expressing themselves through writing text. Whether it is someone writing a love letter or an action packed novel, someone is expressing something. The writing community chooses to share their feelings, stories, or thoughts through text, opposed to singing or acting them out.
