Our World Is...

How I view the place we inhabit.

Our World Is...
Science All

When I open my eyes I see the world as a plain grass field full of possibilities extending to the horizons. A place where structures and opportunities can be built to enhance life for those who will live there. I see the world as a grass field in which a school can be built so that the opportunity comes to educate children. As a new school in an empty field, I see a school with the potential to educate children regardless of background, skin color, gender or religion and without any biases. Every child has the potential to learn, but in our world we wrongly limit some. The grass field will forever grow and change because nothing is ever constant, which is why we have businesses and houses. But everything becomes monetarily driven and soon we have big corporations and men and women who want power, and who begin to have more influence in the land. And soon grass field has become a place of conquest and bloodshed. Where lives have been taken to rule the land and where everything good in the field is threatened.

I see the world as an open field because in an open field anything can be built and provide opportunities. However, I see a world in which these opportunities such as education, the right to marry, vote, or to be free have been limited to certain people and in certain countries, when they should be open to everyone. I see a world that is crumbling because of lack of compassion. But I believe an open field is like an open mind where anything is possible and our world is an open field where anything is possible if we make it the best world we can imagine.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
