Having learned more about the myths and stories of Western civilization, I am understanding more how study of the humanities (art, history, and literature) can be used to help people better understand and communicate with one another. It is obvious that the study of humanities is not just a college course, but it is an ongoing process and practice in life.

The humanities can first be used to understand the past which has created the present. The culture which we have was shaped by the past. Facts, findings, and literature of even thousands of years ago have influenced our world today. Knowing this past can allow people to understand our present; knowing how we came to this present helps us to communicate about it and the future.

Each year our farmer gives our country a bumper harvest. However, this harvest never reaches the common man. It is simply because this produce is hoarded by unscrupulous traders. They create artificial scarcity in the market and sell their products at a high price.

Due to the existing corruption at all levels of government, any remedial action taken by the government to bring the price down is delayed or takes a very long time to reach the common man.
