Our Future

An interesting concept, the future. Did you know that what makes human unique is that we think about our future? No other animals do. So what do I think will happen in our future? I think we'll be more technologically advanced and we'll look at the technology of 2011 and laugh at it.  Can you imagine hundreds of years ago when they listened to live music and someone said that they could take that sound and put it in a metal disk and they could here the performance over and over again. The people in the crowd would probably laugh and say that it would make no sense to make something like that. No, they would say, the future would have horses that could run faster, houses that stand better, medicine that works better. Some of those things have happened, but they probably predicted the advancement of things they had. We think of better computers and better cars and better weapons. Who says the thinks we use now will have any relation to the things they use in the future?
