Is Education Worth Or Just Vain !!?

   "Can Sir Issac Newton discover gravity if he was not under that apple tree and was siting in some ordinary class just like we all do?" No. I personally feel every time when i sit in my class, that me and my friends could have invented some really cool stuffs for sure in young age if we were not educated within four walls and in front of these books with hundreds of pages.



   Even technology nowadays are so advanced that even young children too are smarter enough to trick their parents and if all these used in a proper way every student can invent something or the other like it used to be long time before. According to me from the 19th century inventions are less and all we do is just upgrading what all we are provided with. 

    I personally think that it's these books that bind us and make us upgrade inventions rather than inventing one ourselves. But at the same time it's these books that help us upgrade inventions too and if we can upgrade inventions more than the inventor himself/herself dreamed of, then we too can invent things more than anyone can dream of with these books, all we need to know is how to use this books for inventions instead of upgrading. 



   Like many inventors who spend most of their time with nature or carving their interests more and more. Every student must too be given the same opportunity to evolve their education into an all new invention and not let their education be just for evolving someone's else's invention.

I have always wondered...




TRANSCRIPT:
Hi….but why hi? I mean, like every language in the world has a “hi”! But why! As much as I want to make this video “saying hi” I can’t help but wonder why! Arghhhhh!!!
Ok after a good deal of deliberating, I have come to the following conclusions…
1.      VOICE RECOGNITION
When do we say hi? Before the start of a conversation, when we answer a phone (ok we usually say hello, but same thing….they are synonyms), at the starting of a speech….hmmmm are you guys noticing a pattern? Because I sure am! Always at the beginning…his are always said at the beginning of any form of verbal interaction with another human! You know what this means!!! We register voices better than faces! I mean why else would you say hi to your best friend every time you met them…it is to register yourself as you in their mind!!
2.      WARNING
His are warnings. They are caveats to avoid the incoming company! When a person you don’t particularly like says hi to you (or waves) your survival instincts kick in and your mind begins to formulate the most un-rude way for you to escape the scene before that not so liked person tries to start a conversation with you.
3.      NORMS
We do it because everyone does it. And if we don’t do it people think you are unethical, mean, stuck up, and inconsiderate towards the feelings of others. Just imagine visting your relatives house and not saying hi to your aunt, uncle, or cousin when they greet you. I can already feel my moms death stare burning into my soul….
So that’s why I think we say hi. There must be better and more scientific reasons as to why we do so. If you guys think we say hi for some other reasons please share them in the comments! That’s all for now.

By the way, while getting inspiration for this video I stumbled across this amazing and fascinating link that talks about the history behind saying "hello" every time we pick the phone up! So do check it out!

Vacations to impress

Going to another country for vacation is awesome. But is the trip really for ourselves?
Ever since the introduction of social media, vacations have not been as meaningful as they used to be. I mean, once we would want to visit Paris to admire the Eiffel tower, but now we just want to take a Facebook selfie under it; once we would want to go to Thailand to chill with our families, but now we  just want to find a new "DP" with an attractive foreign girl; once we would want to travel to Rome to look at its magnificent ancient architecture, but now we just want to look at our friends' "comments" to our "going to Rome status". It is such a shame!! We have literally made ourselves puppets tied to the strings of "what other people think"; we walk, talk, and now, even vacation to impress! Trips have metamorphosed into petty "like-getters" from the beautiful "memory-makers" they used to be.


Although this is just a generalization and is not true in many cases, the fact that people want to impress people remains valid. Even if 4 out every 10 people may vacation to impress, those four people should be sufficient enough to make us feel like we're part of a clan of circus monkeys, rather than independently thinking human beings. Because, if even one of us does what he/she does to dazzle the society, he/she is not living his/her own life, but the "ideal" life of his/her                                                           mom,dad,sibling,friend etc! 


  So, LIVE YOUR OWN LIFE!

Does this really happen?

   Ever thought how powerful is the force of attraction withing the nucleus of an atom?
 
   Studies say that the force within a nucleus that holds the protons and neutrons within it is 6 followed by 39 zeros times stronger than gravity.



    Now take an example that your tearing a paper and what if the portion that you tear was that place where an atom's nucleus was lying?



    So even with all this massive amount of forces do we split an atom into two when we tear a piece of paper??

Why?!?

Why is the world the way it is? Why is good, good and bad, bad? Why are some things right, and others wrong? Why! Why! Why!




From the day we were born, we were thrust into the cramped world of preset rules and regulations. Rules that had been decided by people who lived centuries before us, people we don't even know, people that are now dead! I can't help but wonder what gave our ancestors the power to decide the fundamentals social human life! What let them decide that we sit down during lectures rather than stand, that we say hello to greet, and that we follow rules! The fact that their influence over all social norms is still prevalent makes me think: are our predecessor's ideas/rules absolutely flawless? Or, are we simply accustomed to living in conformity?
