W17 Q2

I found that the meaning of symbols was interesting in the book. It talks about how a symbol in one culture can mean a different to people in another culture. I know how this could happen given that different societies shape their own form of norms and customs and It is neat to find out how they came to accept symbols for certain meanings. I remember talking about how people in different cultures take looking in the eyes as respect of disrespect or dogs in one culture is a symbol of mans best friend but to other they are just animals or food. Symbols are fun to discover and come to terms on how they formed.
