Ok today’s topic is a little
different.
I want to tell you about a great eBook
I read, “The Time Traveler [NOOK Book]” by M.A.W. Here is the Overview:
“Due
to coma after a near death war trauma, Frank ends up in a laboratory where his
life is extended for centuries. Traveling through time he experiences the changes
in science, through which he comes to a life changing experience. A time where
evolution and creation meet. Only to find that humanity missed the boat on a
life threatening issue.” It gets a
little weird at the end, but it is well worth reading. (and only about $0.99)
The reason I choose this book is
because of all the different theories out there on why people act and do what
they do. Chances are it is a combination
of a lot of things (To many things lead a human to be what they will become and
to do what they will do). We can’t narrow
it down and say if we stop this, it will stop.
I have never believed that. WE
have to change everyone. Everyone has to
learn to treat all the same, no one better, no one worse. We are all different but that makes us the
same. We can do our best to make laws to
help this change to come about but it will take a lot of time and teaching to
bring it. The sad part is that we, the
dominating race, on this planet cannot protect our young and old alike against
our own race, Humans. We abuse, maim,
humiliate and kill our own kind. There
are women and children that are treated worse than the animals we keep. They are sold and beaten and killed just
because of their sex and age.
That tells me that it will take a
lot of time just to stop something like bullying. But we have to start somewhere. I believe it is the children who will have to
make these changes to come about.
There are only a few ways I can see
this world changing into a place where everyone is happy, fed, healthy and
equal. And most are very, VERY unlikely.
My favorite involves the idea that
we are not alone and someone drops by and says “if you can’t get along with
your own, no way we will ever let you leave this tiny planet.” I have a great imagination. J
Another one involves most of the
people dying on this planet and the few left realize that they have to teach
equality and respect and love for everything on this planet. (Highly unlikely the bullies will take over,
unless, the next generation born is taught right from the beginning!)
Maybe we will get lucky and one day
everyone wakes up and says: “Hay what are we doing? This isn't right!” (Yea that will
happen tomorrow. NOT!)
Nope what we have to do is teach
every new generation, and they will teach the next generation and so on. It will take a long time. Hopefully each new generation changes things
enough so the next can change more. But
it has to start now!!!!!!!
If it doesn't we may not have to worry about the future, we will not have one.
It has been a long day (3 hrs.
sleep last night) and I need to just kick back for a bit, so just a short one for
today!
Well I hope you check out The Time Traveler By M.A.W., you can read it on your PC if you don’t own a reader.
Here is a site offering it (Kobo
and other eReader sites likely offer it too.)
Don't for get to check out my Oct 18 Kittes at Cat Adoption Centre if you live in or around Ontario. ;}
See you all later, thanks for dropping by!
