A silly topic turns into a resisting topic.

           The book I am currently reading is called "The Devil Wears Pinstripes" yes it resembles "The Devil wears Prada" but that is not the point. It actually made me resist in the part when it said that everyone was happy that the Yankees were beaten finally. I know this sounds funny, but when you are a big baseball fan, you may find yourself getting emotionally at some points in the season. 
 
           To me, the reason why I think I resisted was because I really didn't enjoy the trash talking in the book. Even though I could handle it face to face with somebody else, it was kind of different coming from a book I guess. It's kind of like being bullied by a fictional character, and it's not that enjoyable. 

            It actually reminds me of a few incidents I had in my life (The trash talking). I remember one time, My friends started to make fun of me because of the team I liked. Thinking about it now, it makes me think about discrimination against my thoughts/ beliefs. It may be a silly topic, but if you really did deep, you may understand how it may feel.
 
             Resisting is something okay to do. Wether over a "silly" topic like this one, or a very serious topic. As long as you are able to find a deep meaning of why you resisted, it is perfectly fine.
