Until Ralph and Jack were bickering all the time. Then Piggy was also upset about the stupidity of the group.

Throughout history many people have tried to pin down the true nature of man. There are many who will fight to say man is essentially good or essentially evil.These people are called philosophers and while all the ideas are just hypotheses, some contain much truth in them. Both William Shakespeare's Macbeth and William Golding's Lord of the Flies follow the ideas of the english philosopher Thomas Hobbes on the nature of man. Hobbes' ideas on the nature of man, that man is selfishly individualistic, man is constantly at war for self preservation, constant state of war produces brutish people and that law and punishment prevent brutish behaviour are showcased through the thoughts and actions of many characters.

People are subject to change their way of life when their environment changes. The novel “Lord of the Flies” is written by William Golding. The novel about a group of british boys who get trapped on an island during a time over. Over the course of time they spend on the island some of the boys go into a savage state of mind. However some had balance between savagery and civilization.

Changes are a natural progression through life. They either come on their own, without our consent, beyond our control, or because we took control and strove for it. Changes can be good, neutral, or bad. But one thing is for certain, there will always be changes.

Even with an established leader, someone will always think they’re not doing a good job and try to overthrow them. This is exactly what happens in Lord of the Flies by William Golding. The novel takes place during a war. There was a plane carrying a group of British boys that got shot down. They landed on an island after being shot down, and had to survive with no adults around. William Golding uses conflict in this book to show in life, when people have conflict it can tear everything apart.

Change is something that all people go through in their lifetime. When difference comes to someone they react a certain way. Not everyone reacts the same way, many act differently than the person next to you . Some act like a wall and try to fight it others will act like a windmill and go with the flow. The stories I’ve read have helped me receive a better understanding of change.

Change is complex. Change requires sacrifice in order to gain; things we are so connected to have to be given up, but ultimately it is a choice to sacrifice those things. Andy Law, a distinguished author, portrays this concept perfectly in his book Creative Company. He states, "Unless you are prepared to give up something valuable you will never be able to truly change at all, because you 'll be forever in the control of things you can 't give up." Human nature tends to lead people to hold on to what they are familiar with--things that help comfort them in unfamiliar circumstances. When holding on to one 's past so tightly, it is hard for them to move forward. Jumpha Lahiri, author of Interpreter of Maladies, writes stories about people

Change is a terrifying prospect. The idea that things you know, and are used to, could shift, gradually or slowly, is frightening, and leaves most wondering what the future will hold. That uncertainty key, and something humanity seems to try and avoid. Even at our oldest roots however, adaptation and change must happen in order to survive. This doesn’t just count for physical things, or pure survival, but also for our cultural sanity, so to speak. Our piece of mind must be maintained as well; what is viewed as good or what makes one happy has to shift.

Human beings are constantly changing and growing in complexly intricate ways. Our minds evolve at an alarming pace. Unfortunately, if you are anything like me: a creatures of habit, you resist change even if it is for the best.

The theme of Lord of the Flies is the conflict between human impulse and savagery, and the rules of the civilization. The point of the civilization is the minimize if not abolish the conflict. This conflict is shown to us by the differing ideas of Ralph and Jack. Ralph and Jack Represent civilization ad savagery. Simon although the boys think he is odd and a loner is actually very kindhearted and helps piggy since piggy is constantly teased. Jack only wants to have full control/power over the rest of the boys, Ralph on the other hand establishes rules, protects the group. he also uses morals and ethics of the English society they were all raised in. Jack also expects all the boys to follow his lead and do everything

“Let’s Start Here: Change is Inevitable, Natural and Normal” [1] reads the title of Michele’s blog. Humans have been dealing with change since man was created and the way we adapt, has developed parallel to the development of mankind. Change is important because it affects us and its impact on us, has a direct effect on society. The way change is introduced plays a huge role on how we perceive it and react to it. Many people believe it is in our DNA to naturally resist change, is this true? I have to disagree. As humans we cannot resist that what we are psychologically built for. Humans have been adapting over millions of years ago.

Many individuals go through change in their lives and everybody has a different way of dealing with them. Change can be good and beneficial to some people but to others it can really be difficult. Change has really allowed us to grow mentally, because we have gained new knowledge from experiencing new things. There are so many different changes that have taken place over the year such as new music, dances and advancements in technology, and we have all been able to learn and live with them. Another change that happens in life is to have to move to a new school or country, this change might be the most problematic for one to deal with since they might have to make new friends or even learn a new language. In life all of us go through various

When Ralph realises that members of the group are fighting against his proposals, he begins to despair. Through his despair, he finds a weakness burrowing inside and soon turns to piggy for advice and reassurance. This portrays trust and respect for Piggy.
