I was walking to class today and I really tried to break down death. What is it, what really happens, is there heaven? I couldn't really decide because there is no evidence either way. When I myself think about death the only thing that comes to mind is darkness. Nothingness. But what is it. Does it just end or is there somewhere our soul and mind goes? Do we just start over as a new person in a new life? I can't figure it out and then my mind branched. How does how ever many billion people in this world think completely different from one another. No two people are suppose to be exactly the same. But is this actually true. Can someone think and be exactly the same. Kind of like a combo lock...you can only have so many combinations before it repeats. But I am unsure about this theory. It's kind of weird to think about how everyone thinks, everyone makes choices, everyone believes in different things. It's actually quite amazing. My mind branched again. I read an article and heard on the news how when your pet dies you can cut a piece of them off and send them to a company and have your animal cloned. I think science is really pushing this now. I'm pretty sure they have cloned people by now if they have cloned sheep, dogs, and other animals. It's really scary to think some day parents if their child dies in a car accident at a young age or at any age and they really want them back that the technology is their to clone that person. It's really scary. But yet if they have had all these technological advances and can do this how come they haven't cured more diseases and cancers. My personal theory on this is money. Take breast cancer - It costs $800 000 to treat one breast. That's a lot of money to pass up...to me that seems a pretty good reason not to cure cancer. This is an outrage. They can put all this money into cloning but not into curing cancer or just other illnesses. So much for doing anything for the good of people. Id say it's more for the good of their pocket book. But this is long enough.
I will post again soon.

The beauty people are destroying.
I like to take the time each day to appreciate what's left in this world. Whether it's the smells, trees, birds flying overhead, the sounds that surround me, it amazes me. Why do people want, want, want. I wish more people could love the little things and realize what is happening around them. The world is falling apart and were setting ourselves up for a fall. There is technology now to stop it but it's once again the money factor. Everyone wants money and doesn't care what they do as long as they are making money. People are selfish, but in today's world it's hard not to be. People think for themselves and don't see the damage it's taking on the world around us and us. People need to slow things down and look around were losing our natural resources, our land, our water, our breathing air. What is wrong with that picture. Animal and plant species are dying and the eco system is falling apart. How long will it take for the human race to mess up too much? How long will it take to put ourselves extinct? How long before we take a fall that we can fix with money? HOW LONG? The worst part of it is that major companies and the GOVERNMENT can pay their way out of their mistakes. HOW LONG WILL THAT LAST TILL IT'S TOO LATE. The government won't let it be possible for anything to be done about this either they say they are changing but really how is that one true? I don't really know what else to say but it bothers me.
