Compassionate Science

I believe there is a lot of things that we learn in school that can change the world. All of the math and science that we learn in school can eventually be used for the basis of projects that can help make people's lives easier and more efficient. A lot of students always ask "Why are we learning this?"m or "Who cares?". Yet we need to learn all of this basic information in high school so we can have a strong foundation in math or science, so later on we will have the necessary skills to build something or be part of something truly revolutionary. I don't believe I have what it takes to be a Mike Ebeling. I really do wish I have what it takes to change the world, but I just feel like I'm not enough. That I can never reach the level of intelligence that these kind of people reach in order to be able to be part of something important. That is why all I want to do is get the paycheck, support my family, and have a nice little life. I can't imagine myself being part os something so significant. I feel like I will grow up to be a dad with the same routine every day and I think I'm okay with that.
