Memoirs of a Nobody

It one of those times in history, that the world is changing around is, where if you pay attention, you can watch a giant change or shift in what will become tomorrow.

Going green, the next moon mission, politics, the advancement of internet communication, the changing face of medicine…

These are just a few of the changes that have been going on in the past two years, and each day a new development comes, a new step towards what the future will become, and it’s amazing to watch, when one can separate themselves from the day to day and see the changes that are, and the changes that will be.

What will our world be like one year from now, five, ten? When my great great grandkids are playing games and studying, how will they be doing it? Will it be on the same consoles and books I use? Or will their schooling be conducted the way I hope, via a computer where they can experience classes from all over the world, in a global classroom? Will they see a ball and stick as antiques or things that they can equip in a game? Or will the classic games of tag and hide and seek still reign as kids run down the street on a hot summer afternoon?

Will the green movement become the norm, instead of just a quirky thing that takes too much time and energy to actually pay attention to?

Will my dream of a computerized home medical center that can read your symptoms and diagnose the easy things such as a cold or flu become reality, freeing up doctors for more important things become a reality? Will more doctors embrace computerized medical advancements, allowing patients to interact from their homes, instead of dragging their sick bodies to the offices, giving patients comfort and care that the truly want.

What will my decendents write, about the history I’m currently living?
