First Thoughts

The theme for this exam is 'Fire, Water, Earth, Air'. These are what were thought to be the original four elements. I thought this was a rather interesting topic as there are plenty of ways to go about this. My initial plan was to make a small mind map of all the different thoughts and ideas which I had based upon the exam.

My first two ideas were creation and destruction. This was how I decided to sort the ideas I came up with, by which linked into what. The Elements were originally said to be what made the world, however they are also seen as being parts of natural disasters and destruction. The classic metaphor, two sides of the same coin applies nicely here I believe.
