discourse community

discourse communities affect many people because it affects how u grow up and how your life takes its course. i think one of the discourse communities i belong to growing up was the football team we had a common goal inn which we wanted to achieve this was winning, most importantly winning the championship. even though we never won it, we maintained our brotherhood. this was the most important thing in which i encountered as well. another discourse community i belong is being a college student. every college student wants to graduate and be successful and that's the common goal in which we all college students share. i believe the thing that seperates college students apart from each other is the amount of will power some choose to put into their work, just like in life in general. discourse communities are every where, just like at my grocery store job. it was a small community but we all had a job to do and it had to get done by every body cooperating and getting it done together. being in this discourse community also like football taught me the value and essence of teamwork , working together. all my life I've valued teamwork because i learned that there is no I in team. one other discourse community i belong to was my neighborhood. Quite frankly everybody in my neighborhood is family. yet even though we felt as if we were family, alot of people don't make it out, they tend to get stuck because they choose not to do anything with there life. or seems like most people don't want more they just stay in the hood.
