The novel The Outsiders by S.E Hinton is an incredible story about two conflicting bodies of society and how social interactions between the two often led to violence and further misunderstanding. I chose this particular novel for my reflection because it had a significant psychological impact on me. The author S.E Hinton does an amazing job of portraying the inner thoughts and feelings of the various characters which made me feel closer to them. The Greasers, who represent the lower end of the economic scale are often ridiculed by the Socs because of their poor background. The Socs represent the affluent upper middle class teenagers who found pleasure in mocking those who were "different". The reason why this novel had such an impact on me was because although the two groups had economic differences, they both lived relatable lives and had common fears, dreams, goals etc. A key scene in the novel was when Ponyboy Curtis, a greaser, and Cherry Valence, a Soc, discussed extensively about their shared passions. I observed that this temporary human connection quickly closed an invisible gap between them. This book is important to me because as we grow older we see many different people from all sorts of backgrounds and upbringings and its easy for us to put people in a box and categorize them. An example of categorization in this novel is by economical status however we categorize people by their race, education, gender, sexual orientation, and political/religious views on a daily basis. Developing a human connection by interacting with others openly despite conflicting views and differences help us understand their viewpoints. A lesson I took from this novel is that the hardships we face in life may take different forms but we mustn't forget that at the end of the day we are all the same.
