Statements to Live By

Thinkers

Quotes To Life By


These are some thoughts and idea..blurbs I guess you could call them that I have come up with. They have all represented the way I felt at some time whether it be good or bad and what I got out of the situation. Whenever something traumatic or stressful happens to me I tend to reflect upon it after the fact and come up with these statements I like to live by :]

Dark clouds are things that pass; the blue heavens abide always.


Emotional, argumentative retaliation only adds to the problems.

This Day Is Ours

It’s amazing to think of how far we have come as a species. Just to think that a few thousand years ago we were still living as uncivilized beasts and today, well I’m sure you can see where I’m going with this. The fact is we live in an amazing time, a time of great exploration, a time where literally anything and everything is possible. Just think, in the last hundred years we have seen more and advancement in technology than we have had in the past thousand, that’s exponential growth at it’s most simple form and it’s something we can all see and understand.

Amazing New Hubble Photos

Hubble is Back in Action

The Hubble telescope has been an incredible tool for scientists of all kinds. It has been through Hubble’s amazing lens that we have discovered and confirmed many theory which were thought to be complete nonsense only 50 years ago. As many of you know this telescope was recently repaired, as well as given a new array of ways to view the sky. The end result of these repairs is truly amazing.

This is an amazing video of the progress that the newly outfitted Hubble Telescope has made over the past few months.

Amazing Future

Get Ready

I recently watched a show on the History Channel that described how in the NEAR future we will be able to shape our genetic destiny.

This is all going to be accomplished with a revolutionary science called Gene Therapy. Human beings are literally created by a blueprint that our genetic code determines. However until recently the Human Genome was unknown. Now that the Human Genome is known and documented we can begin to classify the genes that are associated with certain diseases, mental defects and even things like skin color, and hair thickness.

This might seem outrageous but a future of disease free humans is coming. Our life expectancy will double, or even triple that of today’s, and not only that but we may even be able to reduce or even CANCEL the agents of aging.

This is truly an amazing time to be alive and I for one am extremely excited to see what the future holds for us all.

What do you think we will be able to accomplish with gene therapy, and other human-heal related sciences? TELL ME! (You can comment) I’m always eager to hear the ideas of others especially in this field.



Rhetoric and Propaganda?!

It’s Rampant

bullshit

It seems very peculiar to me that in the presidential campaigns of the U.S, people don’t care if the person running gives any examples of what he/she HAS DONE to prove that they will be the best candidate. No, instead the spout rhetoric and ideological perfection and at times complete nonsense because they know they can get away with it. They know they can do what most politicians do. Say one thing and do another. It’s absolute crap.

Take Obama for example, he claimed he would have our troops home from the middle east within months of his election. What did he do? He comes on T.V with some Bull**** excuse trying to make everyone believe he must keep them there. Am I the only one who sees the contradiction in this? Well you could make the argument HOW COULD WE HAVE KNOWN HE WAS GOING TO DO THIS? Simple. CHECK HIS BACKGROUND. No one ever talks about what he has accomplished, or the legislation he has tried to pass. Instead people would rather gossip about his personal life.

This behavior is not acceptable for one who holds the most powerful position in the ENTIRE WORLD. Yet the public elected him fully knowing that had limited experience and was only a senator for a short time. So what have we got here, a person who spouts meaningless statements such as Change! Change! As well as a person with hardly any political background.

So please people if you get anything out of this remember that campaign slogans are nothing more than an over-hyped impractical ideas meant to subconsciously train you into thinking they’re true. When you have a sound belief like those which are repeated constantly, regardless of whether or not they are true you’re going to remember them. It take a person of considerable intelligence in my opinion to not play into these meaningless statements.

Good luck.

Opinions Without Fact!?!??

Politics (don’t worry I’m not spouting left/right) :]


Politics is a fun, and heated topic among lots of people. Tempers rage over ideological difference, and friendships are broken through hot-headed people on both sides.

But seriously folks why have an opinion if you don’t know, or understand the topics at hand? It’s severely bothers me that people have the nerve to think their opinions matter, or are even relevant when they hardly understand the political spectrum.

You wouldn’t go around having an opinion on the Windows XP operating System if you hadn’t used a computer before, so why chose Left or Right if you don’t understand what the extremes of either are?

A word of advice. Only History can be turned to for an accurate representation of what works and what doesn’t.
