My
thoughts on the
world today >>>
For
this web page I decided to place some of my thoughts hence
the topic called ‘Cerebral’ about today’s
human race and provide a push to the
idea of what may happen in our future.
Some
of the topics are troubling and perhaps
interesting at the same time you make your own mind up after all we are
all
individuals or are we. These topics may or may not have my
thoughts
attached until I can get around to them.
It
is difficult to express ones self that
others can comprehend especially with topics like these.
So
clear you mind and proceed to read and conjure up you own
thoughts and perhaps these topics will raise more questions.
WORLD
Environment
Well
as we all know there is a problem. Yet there is a
reluctance to change our habits to resolve it. Greed and money come to
mind,
possibly a similar thing that squashed the electric car. Government
within a
Government!
Building
The
human race seems to be having a lot of fun building on
coastal fronts. Now a question needs to be raised, what happens when
you
constantly move earth materials to the rims of land? We
have continental plates, we have gravity, mixed with the mass
weight of
cities/ population - would these together cause
future planetary issues?
Stress and strain on the plates could have an
interesting effect!
YOUTH
Mobiles
What
are we breeding into our children? We have children/
teenagers going around sending SMS messages when the person
they wish to
interact with is only five meters away...
If
we are not careful our social interaction skills will
dissipate.
Values
It
is unfortunate that in this day and age we have a loss of
value in society. This is not a generalization but an ever increasing
number of
current generations are unable to understand values except for the
value of
what they want.
It
is almost as if the youth of today don't care about others.
We have senseless vandalism and damage to other people’s
property, high speed
car chases, stabbings, even suicide which is all we seem to be viewing
on the
news these days along with what you see in the streets.
Before
long our race could be fighting amongst ourselves and
possibly become a form of savages with technology at their side. Not a
future I
would be happy with but if you are brought up in such an environment
how can
they measure any difference, look at Iraq.
Our
children need to be taught values as an importance to ensure
our society are kind and helpful to one another, and not fighting wars.
Instead
of giving $50 bucks to your child to get out of your hair, have a good
time
with them and teach them values.
Instead
of saying nothing say excuse me to get past, a little
manners would not go astray.
These
are values we are losing in our society and as generations
go, it will get worse.
Isn't
that why we have history to learn from so we do not make
the same mistakes again!
Respect
SPACE
Big
Bang Theory
I
am sure I am not the only one with a few more questions about this
theory. Granted scientists have provided solid proof that all the
Galaxies that
we can observe originated from a single point in space.
But
what caused this tremendous burst of energy or
reaction? What was there before? Who or what put it there in
the first
place? Why did it happen at that particular point and time?
The questions
could go on and on. A reminder that
the vacuum of space still
existed, prior to the point of origin.
Getting out there…
Wouldn’t
the Project Managers, Administrators and Engineers at
NASA be a little ticked off after spending millions of tax payers
money on a white elephant called the Shuttle when out of the
blue come
Spaceship 1 and Virgin Galactic enterprise cheaper and no million
dollar tiles
required.
I admire Sir
Branson
living the dream and making it reality - now.
The
planet needs more people Like the Virgin Galactic owner who
thinks of humanities future. Not only do we need to tidy up
the mess we
have created but we do need to start searching
space for other habitable
planets before our once existence was just that - once
existed.
We
are not alone
Like
a lot of scientists, writers even the average person on the
street would say no, and the rest of the population would
envelope themselves
in a safety net of a religious order due to it being difficult to
understand.
UFO
sittings and all are somewhat rubbish that
people claim to see often fueling the idea that we are not alone in
this
Galaxy. Would you honestly think a UFO would land
and mutilate a
cow, highly unlikely.
It maybe difficult to come to terms
with but the human race is just starting to discover that some theories
are
possible. e.g. folding
space, wormholes etc…
I,
like others strongly believe that we are not alone. We must
be naive to think we are the only ones that have some form of
intelligence (being
that this is a form of intellectual measurement against what we know of
as
being normal or acceptable) amongst literally billions of
Galaxies with
similar solar systems to our own.
Were does it end
With
the Big Bang Theory in mind we still have the vast void of
space and to this date we do not know where it ends, if at
all it does
end. It was there before the so called Big Bang but why and what caused
this
vastness in the first place. Interesting
and mind boggling to
say the least.
Do we hurry up and leave?
Anyone
heard of ‘Russian roulette’? put it this way we are
all
on the one planet and one day something will happen on a catastrophic
level and
we will become extinct, who do we have to blame? Ourselves.
Our
history, learning,
politics,
ambition to make a difference, everything we have built - gone, and
some would
say what a waste. ‘We do not see outside the square and live
within it’.
As
a society we concentrate making a living, go to work, drink
up our weekly earnings, and buy a few clothes, gadget or shoes
not knowing
anything or very little outside this reality and from a government
point of
view it is a happy medium for population control.
We
as a race are just starting to turn on the light
and looking out away from our planet and discovering that the universe
is not
that forgiving. Yet we still breed and increase the population well
beyond the
sustainable resources the planet can provide but are not concerned.
We
should strive to not have all our eggs in one
basket and be proactive and get moving off our home and venture into
space
before it is too late. But at what
cost ? ‘Monies not
worth anything on Jupiter’…
WORKING
ENVIRONMENT
Don’t trust anyone!
Well
as the saying goes ‘keep your friends close and
your
enemies even closer’ is very true.
As
we grow older and wiser we find this to be true especially
with some of the next generation of beings coming through who seem to
not or
shy away from feelings and their 'don’t care' attitude who
they bowl over to
get position in the workplace.
This
relates to the Youth topic where there is lack of respect
and attention to the environment they reside in and in some respects we
only
have our current generation to blame.
The
workplace is complex and unforgiving given that the rules
and regulations around how an employees' should be treated is near
impossible
to administer any form of control. I speak of persons not being
truthful not
being self motivated enough to bring issues to the table so that they
can be
rectified and these employees'/ employers' seem to be the ones who plot
and
devise methods of takeover.
We
only have ourselves to blame making life to complex for the
average human to find trust and honesty in one another.
