this is one of my thoughts on thought and why it is man's greatest power
Thought:
Man’s Greatest Power

Personal collection of notes by Michael Taylor

In my life, lately I have noticed that I am on auto-pilot. I walk through school and I think. I think about every subject that is afflicting my life that point. I am never sure why. I often do not focus on school work. And by this I realize that I disappoint my teacher. I disappoint amber, and my parents, even myself.
However I can not help this action. I can not stop the thoughts. I know that when I am finally with amber that will be one less thing to think about. She is the sole person that can urge me to work my hardest. She holds the power to get me to do anything. Love holds power unimaginable, and I may harness this power to better my self. It must be too bad that I do not see an end to the thoughts of her anytime soon.
         Thinking is something that everyone does. But few think upon the levels I do. Few now days ask the questions that I do. They are too lost in pop culture and are worried more about new shoes that are coming out. These people are mentally weak. And according to the laws of Survival of the Fittest and of Natural Selection, they will be picked off.
Thought of a higher purpose is something that intrigues me. I am transfixed by its beauty. Each though is a Lego. Each shall build a new thought, a new answer and a new question within that answer. It seems never-ending, however I believe there is an end. That end is something that our primate brain is incapable of accomplishing. I use the term primate because compared to the questions, and answers that await us, we might as well be in the Stone Age, working on fire and the wheel, or the simple tools. An answer will arise, only when we are ready as humans. And this answer will seem so obvious to us as fire and the wheel is to us today.
So we can only hope for answers or knowledge can handle, but knowledge that can understand and interpret the answers, then ask more questions, and it begins a chain reaction in which we hope for knowledge capable of those answers, then to ask more questions. That would be one of the most beautiful sights to behold, that of which the moment when we, as humans, with minds then open, ask the right questions that leads to the right answers. This shall be man’s greatest power.
