Write your reflections on the space provided.
Stranger Things is one of the series I watch frequently. I enjoy it because of the mixture of mystery,
friendship, and adventure. I watch it for relaxation mostly, since I am under stress on account of
my studies, but I also enjoy the fact that it makes me think about such things as trust, courage, and
cooperation. On a deeper level it serves my needs for thrills and for feeling a close relationship with
others. It is an indication of how worthy it is to have friends who are there for you in the hard
times. What I learn from it is of how differently different people react to fear and loss and the
unknown. My impression is that true strength lies in unity and sympathy. It has the lesson that
curiosity and bravery lead to knowledge but that they must be associated with responsibility. These
lessons are certainly valuable to me as I grow older, since they help me to realize the necessity for
being brave, loyal, and open-minded. I can confidently recommend Stranger Things to others,
especially teenagers, for it is interesting but there are also many lessons in it on the subject of
friendship and resiliency. I would not, however, permit very small children to view it, because some
of the scenes might be rather frightful and violent. On the whole, it holds my attention with a sort of
a pleasurable sensation to me, making me think of things that are valuable to me in my upward
growth, but giving important lessons in bravery and loyalty to me but also in the prospect of
meeting challenges. All of these are very valuable traits for me to develop in this stage of my
development.____________________________________________________________________
