A couple weeks back, on the first day of my sociology class, my professor split the whole class into groups and gave us all a bag full of items found in the everyday home. He asked every group to identify how each item could “speak about” families (yes, he worded it that weirdly). One of the items in our bag was a small packet of Sweet’n’Low.
I immediately identified this item to represent how families can act sweet to one another, when they are really just being fake with one another.
…. Why did this thought come to me so immediately?
…. Why was my whole class so quick to agree with me in that sentiment?
It’s because, at some point, we all have either been fake with ourselves or had to deal with fake people in our lives, and we all have known the experience to be a bitter one!
