Spreading the knowledge

There are many inventions in the world that have changed the way people live or just the way they make life easier. Amongst all these inventions there is one in particular that stands out the most and this is the printing press. The printing pres is considered one if not the greatest inventions in world history. This invention helped spread the knowledge in a great way, by paper. In modern day another great invention occurred also changing the way people live and become intelligent. The computer and internet is also considered a great advantage since important information of any kind is available to peoples reach whereas many years before the same information could only be acquired at a library. Aside from that with the help of the computer and internet you are virtually able to shop or make important payments without leaving home, which also reduces your vehicle gas consumption.

carpe diem

The Latin saying carpe diem which translated to the enjoyment of the pleasures of the moment without concern for the future is in my opinion what life in general is or should be for all the people. I believe that the though and/ or act of just enjoying yourself in any given situation is what helps us understand that life is short and we should be in a good state of mind and happiness despite the tragedies that we may be going through. Personally this is how I feel, the fact that there are positive thoughts about myself and the ones around me lets me know for a fact that the good vibe will be attracted towards me, that the chances of something bad happening reduce to a save percentage and that this keeps us healthy/ full of life even if we don’t notice it. we must believe in the hispanic saying that says: "AL MAL TIEMPO BUENOS PENSAMIENTOS" ( TO BAD TIMES GOOD THOUGHTS).
