Other than the fact that this article was short and to the point, I thought it was an interesting choice to read for an article, because I thought that I could use this same theme. In my mentor's office there was a rock that read Namaste, and after asking my mentor what that meant, I felt it said a lot about who she was as a person, and who I want to grow up to be. This is why I thought it was a good idea to talk about this word in my article.

Honestly, what got my attention about this article was the topic. If this gave me the idea to start off talking about a contradicting of widely known conflict that many people will read and relate to. Another thing I could do is come up with a title that can mean many different things that many people can see and want to know what the article is going to be about. Many people say "don't judge a book by its cover," but I know that people do that anyways, so in order to get the readers attention I need to come up with a good hook and/or title that will get the reader to judge positively.

I was not too convinced by the introduction of this article, though it was something that some might connect with. This person starts off with the whole "we have all been through...." trick where she expects the reader to feel an immediate connection. Though this did not immediately get my attention, it got me thinking that maybe I should start off with something like a question like this person did in their last sentence in their introduction. People are not going to get too far when reading so if they at least read through my introduction they would see the question and might think twice about reading the rest of this article.
