i hate such wet weathers then agian i also love such wet weathers too
Like = it's cool! cold!! makes me feel awake. Unlike some pple like an Ivan Tang who probably slept the whole day away. Haiz..some pple ah....*bo wei gong*
Dislike = forces me to stay indoors. makes me think too much (yes yes i know William will say a good round of dota will stop all the thinking, lol). of course it could also be me listening to my blog's music, which always did have a sort of reflective/contemplation tone.
So here's today's thoughts.
I've always wondered what happens if humans were longer lived. currently we are at our prime ard 20-35, die ard 90-110. we are as described in Fantasy books really short lived if u consider abt it. Of course i know there are certain insects, organic meat bags etc that have far shorter life span. (mosquitos have a span of 1 week, a certain fly species have only a single day).
so ya back to topic, if only humans were just slightly longer-lived, let say dying age is ard 120-130. I've always thought that u know if we meat bags did live longer, the life we lead will be less hectic, and we might actually pause to consider our actions. Currently, i'm sure those uneducated fools in Indonesia or anywhere else (referring to those farmers/corrupted officials that dun care abt the environment, illegal logging etc) never do pause to consider their actions. Why? In their mindsets, i'm pretty certain they will thinkj, who cares? in another 50-60 yrs time, i will be dead and gone, let the future generations handle the problems I caused.
Imagine a life where our peak age is 20- 55? Life will certainly be less of a rat race. Then things might not change. Longer lived = more pple inhabiting this world = burdens of overpopulation etc etc which will bring all sorts of new problems like birth control, population control, famine etc etc. Then again isn't that what's happening to our world now?
Now with all the tinkering with DNA, genes etc, humans might become longer-lived in years to come. That is if we all don't die within the next century or so. Our race is truly stupid acutally. Considering we are stuck in this single mudball, and haven't discovered the secrets of colonising other planets, u will think pple will take care of the environment more. Immediate matarialistic needs will always outweigh far unforseenable predicatable harm, that's holds true for the uneducated and uncultured. Alas, fools will remain fools and the world will burn, taking us, fools and otherwise along with it.
*if i could only write this fluidly w/o stopping to think much on my assignment that's due in 2 days time*
