What does it mean to own something?
When I had originally seen the prompt of "what it meant to own something?", it had truly got me thinking and wondering what it mean to truly own something and it's reflection on one's self identity. I thought about how my entire life has been in the pursuit of "ownership", whether it be money, possessions, or even the ownership of another person's love or admiration. I asked myself, does this make me a bad person? Have I been clouded by my own selfish desires? Or have I been working hard for others so that I can share in my success? I felt very conflicted when I saw this prompt, because for the first time in a while, I haven't taken a solid stance in a topic for a while. I look forward to writing this argument essay in the future and to see how I further develop my position.
