Subject: John P. Hallar – Living Metaphors:
What I learned doing this assignment is to explore the use of metaphors that challenges the old way of thinking.
1. Five Should Work, But Doesn’t Challenges
a. Old Way: That men provide for the woman. That women cannot provide for themselves.
b. Challenge:
i. Embracing equality and recognizing each person’s unique capabilities strengthen relationships, fostering shared responsibility and mutual empowerment beyond traditional gender roles?
ii. Acknowledging and embracing the diverse talents and strengths of both partners enhance the richness and resilience of a relationship, fostering equality and shared responsibility?
iii. In a world where capabilities are diverse, consider the strength in a partnership where both individuals contribute, flourishing like a garden of interdependent, thriving flowers.
iv. Reimagined relationships as a collaborative journey, where both partners contribute diverse strengths, fostering a garden of shared prosperity and self-reliance.
v. Relationships as a tandem bicycle ride, where both partners pedal together, sharing the journey and embracing mutual support
2. Five Living Metaphor Challenges
a. Old Way: That men provide for the woman. That women cannot provide for themselves.
b. Challenge
i. Metaphor: A harmonious dance where partners share the lead, creating a symphony of balance and equality.
ii. Metaphor: A garden where both flowers and trees thrive together, each contributing unique beauty and strength, creating a vibrant and resilient ecosystem.
iii. Metaphor: Picture a symphony where every instrument, regardless of its traditional role, plays a crucial part, creating a harmonious and powerful composition.
iv. Envision a dance where both partners take turns leading, creating a graceful and harmonious rhythm that transcends the limitations of traditional roles.
v. A two-winged bird, soaring to new heights when both wings contribute to the flight, embodying shared strength and independence.
3. How do you think it would play out in the story? Em would start to employ that Judith needs to dance too, use her wing, play her instrument to contribute to the piece, be her own flower in the garden so that she contributes equally.
