In class: An Argument?

Argument, When i first came inot this class an argument to me was like a fight or a disagreement. When you hear the word argument you usually think of people getting into it or falling out amongst each other. Argument to me was always looked upon with a negative view. After reading chapter 1 i started finally to understand that everything truly is an argument. The way a person dresses or acts is an argument about there persona as a whole. I started to think of things as awhole like even things small as when every one stands for the national anthem we are all making an argument. No one speaks or dares to sit down we all show respect to the song and country the argument could be that we all our proud americans. The book really just made me look at everything as a different perspective because everything tends to say something more than what it appears to be. I now try to look and see what things are arguing and what argument they could be trying to present.
