Compassionate Science

Science without compassion is like a seed without water.  It’s like being in the dark without a flashlight.  One need to set a goal and aim to achieve but, if in the end of the day it all just comes down to the big digit on the pay check then one needs to wake up and realize the key to success is missing, compassion.  Take for example those who are using technology to discover a cure for caner.  If those medical scientists didn’t obtain compassion then their interest to actually achieving a cure would be insignificant.  As long as they arrive at their work and act as if they were actually aiming for a successful discovery then their paycheck would gladly arrive in the mailbox.  I personally experienced the amazement of how compassion and technology join together to cure those in need.  I experienced a minor defect within my left leg as a child in which could be cured but through a surgery.  Yet, before any procedures could be made that involved a knife to my skin I had to use a special foot cast.  This cast would support and straighten my ankle to actually touch the floor correctly since my minor defect was that I would walk on tippy toes with my left foot.  Due to technology and its wonderful creations I may not be completely normal but after all was done it demonstrates to me that someone out there found the desire to take the time and improve my life with the compassionate use of science and technology that they had knowledge of.  

The Future

The Future, a place to fear, technology now is already taking over the minds of the young and corrupting the world as it is.  Before we realize it within hundred years our decedents will suffer a world of chaos and the world know today will just be a distance memory.  California today is facing the worst drought ever and there is no sign of its retirement.  Within a hundred years what is known to be California will be only a stranded desert it will be the second runner up against the mighty savanna desert.  The ruins of Los Angeles will stand deserted by the people who fled its city in distress and anguished for what they were promised only lasted a few years.   Yet, throughout the country technology has over taken mankind.  What was once known to be a nation of freedom will turn into the mightiest imprisonment wasteland.  Now cameras rome every hall and our every action can be seen except for the privacy of our homes.  Yet, within the hundred years period all privacy will have vanished what the four walls of our household could obtain will no longer be.  Our thoughts and actions will be visible to the government.  The government will have total control and one will not be able to have a say on what goes or doesn’t. Those who we once called leaders will become our worst nightmares.  Civilization will no longer know the meaning of freedom. 

One time I laughed really, really hard...

One time I laughed really, really hard…

            It was when I had my first sleepover with my cousin, which resulted to be a horrible hilarious event.  It all began around midnight since of course sleepovers aren’t actually known for sleep.  The name given its self is ironic humor.  Well, eventually bored out of out minds yet, in denial to accept that we were tired and ready for the “day” to end we eventually headed of to the kitchen for late night snacks.  We, of course saw no harm in our action but since it was midnight it was a different story especially if it was our grandparents house.  Quiet as ever we entered the kitchen and ate all we could find possible and desirable.  Though throughout the entire whole entire time we believed we were being sneaky our grandfather was watching us amazed by our actions.  Instead of telling us the wrong doing in out actions he joined us in our “crime” and it was never spoken to my grandmother of such time. As we returned to our room we couldn’t believe what out grandfather had done laughing till we fell asleep

My Review on Modern Times

     The famously known "silent" film, Modern Times by Charlie Chaplin is an inspiring picture.  Chaplin demonstrates the hardships that were occurring during the Great Depression in the United States.  His film sent the message of hope to those who could no longer go on.  He viewed the world in a different light.  He believed that as long as you can keep smiling then your opportunities will never perish.  One can give up yet, giving up will not achieve your desires.  Chaplin's famous character, the little tramp, is the main role of the film.  This character demonstrates that although you may come with nothing you eventually can receive it all.  Maybe not all the riches of the world yet, having some will be all you need.
