                                                                 E P T Essay
      
                 In an essay written my Mead, she argues that we as Americans see the concept of success as a source of confusion. she believes that we are taught to rejoice in the success of people far removed from us and yet the people that work in another profession, a different community, or with a different set of skill we wish not to have, and even people in our small group are regarded as a threat. this is true. One can see it in our every day life.
  
              In the society, in the American society, we are taught to love the success of a celebrity sometimes even "worship" them and this is without knowing them. why do we love celebrities so much? Well, its simple, take 2Pac for example,. he's the greatest rapper in the world, to many people. he had no father, a druggie mother and a sister. he lived in the ghetto, with nobody to help him. he became a thug, rapper, and a iconic celebrity. All the poor ghetto kids wanted to be like him. they saw in him, what was in them. he was a poor man's dream and thug poet. hen there are the people we see as threats.

These people are not bad, not all are mean, or even angry people. We just don't like them. Why, what's the reason for such hate? the reason is that this people are the exactly what we don't want to ever become or if they are very much like you; you feel like they are copying you. We like celebrities because we picture them the way we want them to be and not the way the are and that's not right.

   We shouldn't hate our peers. we must learn to love one another. Lets be a great society, one that love the other, one that helps the other, and one that would protect the other. we are humans, we are organisms that have feelings, lets not let other change this and let work together to create the foundation to a better civilization, a greater home, to make world peace a real thing and not just a good idea.
