How does structuralism in psychology apply to how I've become who I am today?
This picture gives me many memories, being taken back when I was in middle school during 8th grade. When I see this picture I remember one of my most supportive and understanding friends that I had. To me it reminds me of a time when I was more socially capable and had many, many people who would see my pain and support me in a heartbeat. It reminds me how I even took this picture because I was bored and my friend dared me to simply because she knew I wasn't fond of outrageous dares, so I did it, I hugged the tree and sent the picture. It reminds me of why I was at that location, my great grandfather's funeral, a kind old man being lost to time. I stayed strong the whole time, my link with him wasn't very strong (I'm not heartless, I definitely cried later), but I was there and comforted my younger brother as he was openly upset at the time. And I also see that sweater and remember the one time my principal wore the same design so I vowed to never wear it again because that felt weird. That's what I see when I see this picture.
I decided upon an image of myself hugging a palm tree. It was one of the only photos of myself that I had immediately available. In structuralism you would break down your consciousness into elements in hopes of understanding the whole by looking at what something means to you through introspection. I picked this photo because it means many more things to me than it does to other people due to the memories and experiences I have linked with it.
