Our Futures are Heading Toward Us!

Where have we been, and where are we going? Questions like this are more and more difficult to answer these days. As time marches forward, technology and innovation become interwoven into the tapestry of human evolution. As we evolve by way of these newer and newer technologies, an approaching threshold beyond that of any known boundary is sure to be crossed. The complexities of our world then make it increasingly difficult to predict the next phase of development amongst our social classes, economic systems, and globalization of just about everything. There are few if any people capable of shedding light onto the ever emerging future. The paradigm is swiftly changing, and the best I can hope to accomplish through the words in this article is to simply open your minds to the impossibilities of the probable tomorrow.

The understanding of our current progress is of dire necessity if anyone is to maneuver through the turbulent times ahead. No longer is it appropriate to see events taking place at a linear rate, of which insight into the future is relatively in reach. In this new era, one will not be able to see over horizon so to speak, creating an overwhelming curiosity about what is just around the corner. Under these conditions, it is natural for one to pay a bit more attention to their surroundings and events relating to their lives. With so much bombardment of the newest advances, people enter a state of awe and wonder. Multitudes of people eventually see into the possibilities of the world around them. Exciting times lay ahead of us all, and this dynamic continues to propel the hearts and minds of men and women forward in search of something even more elusive than that of technology alone.

Today, unsolved crimes of a decade ago, or more, are being solved. This is due to technology being more accessible and usable. In some cases, history is being rewritten. Newer and more precise solutions to controversial scientific explanations of the past have a great deal to do with these newer systems of thought, and an entirely new set of questions are coming along with our discoveries. It really is anybody’s guess as to what is in store for humanity in the next decade or two, and anyone who thinks they know are only fooling themselves, along with the countless others who take things at face value.

This feverish pace shows no signs of slowing, and as of now, there is nothing to suggest that we will come up against a wall of limitation. Nothing seems capable of slowing our advancement except perhaps that our own ignorance and greed. Scientific progress is exciting to bear witness to, however most don’t see the double edged sword that comes with it. Complex webs of understanding can benefit mankind, but it may be a threat if not properly managed. Many new technologies could just as easily destroy our world as they could save it.

It’s important for the average person to understand the current state of scientific progress so as to be educated about future decisions we are all going to be forced to make. With the emergence of cloning and our increased knowledge of DNA and stem cell research, ethical and moral issues that no one has ever thought possible are going to add to the confusion of these changing times. It will be the responsibility of every individual to go inside themselves in order to discover what is best for our futures. This will not be an easy task, picking what technologies are acceptable, and which ones aren’t, but we must not allow government to take the lead in making these decisions for us. Only by becoming activists and voicing your own ideals will a balance between humanity and technology occur.

Revolutions in many areas at the same time will prove to change the way the world operates. It will happen fast like all other revolutions of the past. Eventually it will be impossible to tell where we stand until years after the fact. With so much information already permeating the atmosphere and the internet, many would argue that we have entered a state of accelerated continual change in which it is difficult to accurately assess our truest positions. This flowing stream of change is only speeding up.

What I hope to have outlined thus far is that as we have evolved into what we are today, technology will continue to evolve side by side with us into the future. We are incredibly reliant upon what we have created, that our future success hinges upon us taking responsibility for the implementation of these systems of knowledge. The whole process is contingent upon our average level of education. By increasing the mean level and quality of education to larger groups, we eliminate much of our ignorance to the world around us. We must all fight to deny ignorance, and discover for ourselves what forces are truly at work.
