LIFE ISNT WHAT IT’S CRACKED UP TO BE
It was the year 2028, the world irrevocably came down to cloning where everyone who wanted a twin could receive it by a simple procedure done by scientist. The hard times were over if an individual did not feel like completing a task he would just have his clone complete it for him. It all started with a professional football player named Paul who was exhausted from the living three lives one as a running back on the football field, a celebrity on the streets, and a father to his children. Paul was a muscular man his arms hung like a hungry bear searching for food. His skin was brown he had black hair, brown eyes, and dressed as if he just won the lottery. Paul was a well-known football player, but football was fairly difficult in the year 2028 every player had special cleats that when the player was doing well in the game the cleats would allow the player to jump higher, run faster, tackle harder, and perform moves never before seen. This would make it difficult for the players that have to play the individual who is performing well in the football game. Little did the league know, Paul was not interested in the fame, the money, and the wealth he just wanted to stay at home with his family but still make the money he is making. So Paul invested in cloning His wife Kim had informed him on it she had told him that she had a friend whose husband cloned himself so he could be at two different places at the same time. Kim was an exquisitely pretty lady she had black hair, hazel eyes, tan skin, and a curvy body. Paul immediately asked “ is it going to affect my health in ever playing football again?” Kim answered “absolutely not” and the deal was done. Paul paid 60,000 dollars to get himself cloned. The following day Kim took Paul to see a professional at cloning. Paul saw nothing special about this man he could tell that he had been drinking and that he didn’t care much about his job.

    Would it be so bad to have a world were all is good, no disease, famine, or illness; everyone is the epitome of their father and mother eyes and all those living in a world where cloning the norm. There are those in the here and now who see cloning, in all it facets, as a good and wonderful thing, to be done by all, if your hearts so desires. "Some among us are delighted, of course by the this state of affairs: some scientist and biotechnologist, their entrepreneurial backers, and a cheering claque of sci-fi enthusiast, futurologists, and libertarians (Winston & Edelbach, 2009)."…

    The article “Human Cloning Within 50 Years” discusses the predictions of scientists having the ability to clone humans within the next 50 years. Scientist Sir John Gurdon of great Britain says that people who have lost a baby to either a disease or other problems will be able to create another baby with the same DNA as the one that they lost. Sir John Gurdon is the same scientist who cloned dolly the sheep in 1996 with successful results. Gurdon predicts that there will be major controversy over the action of cloning but after it has been done and proven to work he says people will accept it as they do with in-vitro fertilization. Gurdon states that In-vitro fertilization was regarded with extreme suspicion before it actually produced successful results in 1978 and now it is widely accepted, which he believes will happen with cloning in the future. Creating Humans in such a way could change the world as we know it, not quite like how Shelly envisioned it in the frankenstein story but it will still make a difference. Cloning could also pose some major problems for society due to the fact that it could result in deformations and complications in the growth of the child. Although Frankenstein's story is a little far fetched in a way that body parts were simply sewn together and a man was created, there are a lot of similarities as the modern day theory of cloning…

    If human clones are also mass produced, their value will decrease, that is what worried many people. Moreover, Albert Moraczewki and Arlene Judith Klotzko add that “the result is that each child born has a unique set of genes, which is a reflection of the child’s unique soul” (Klotzko and Moraczewki). Individualism is valued by many in the United States of America. According to this claim, the “unique set of genes” represents an individual (Klotzko and Moraczewki). In the cloning process, the “unique set of genes” is copied, meaning an individual is copied, stripping the individualism from the individual.…

    People always like to trust their intuition. When people see others for the first time, they immediately like or dislike them based on their look or their speech, even their clothing. They use intuition to ensure a person, but actually a good-looking man will be a bad guy. William Shakespeare wrote Macbeth. It is considered one of his darkest and most powerful tragedies. It talks about the kingdom, the prophecy and blood. In Macbeth, things that characters believe are not true. Throughout the play, trust is misused, the prophecies are misunderstood and eventually power destroys the characters.…

    A lot of people say they would like to change their life or retract their steps, but me I wouldn’t trade any of it for the world. Brooke Smith, my first child, that I went through 34 hours of labor with is a reminder of all that I have went through, what I have done to get to where I am today and what I will do for her to have the best life I can possibly give her being her mother. Certain things in my life were trying and devastating to where I wanted things to be different, but God makes no mistakes. Day to day I learned something new that made me wiser in result of growing up from a child to the woman I am today regardless of the lies I have told, criminal acts that I have committed, being sneaky and just making dumb mistakes. Everyone says how do you do it, Lisa, “how do you function with all that you have to deal with and do for other people?,” “Fortunately, I am able to do it and obviously God has a purpose for me and will not put more on me than he knows that I can,” how I respond to that question that is asked by others frequently. Graciously I am still standing strong and haven’t hit the ground to where I didn’t rise back up. Hate and love played a major part in the things that have transpired in my life to determine my ending result in different situations. I know for a fact at times the option I chose wasn’t always a benefactor or a positive route to take. My choices have gotten me in a lot of trouble at times. Nary do I regret the choices because as I said before those choices made me wiser. Obviously, your mistakes are not always your downfall in life they can be a stepping stone. People usually let their mistakes get the best of them. Quickly people think they want to be someone else or have someone else’s not realizing their own purpose because we all are her for different reasons. Rarely do I love hard with anything or anyone due to being hurt by many people that I loved and were loved ones.…

    Good morning to one and all. Today I Abhinav Gupta is going to speak on the topic “Life is full of ‘Ifs’ and ‘Buts’.” Many of us have heard and even used the idiom – No ifs or buts at some point in our life. “Ifs and Buts” is a term used to describe the reasons people give for not wanting to do something. To show that you don’t wish to accept any excuses, you can tell somebody that you wish to hear no ifs or buts. We not only tell it to others, sometimes they tell it to us as well.…

    Pushy parents are a very touchy subject to talk about. When it comes to the well fare of children, people are always ready to jump and point fingers at others without gathering the facts. The parents of theatre, gifted, and talented children get these nasty fingers pointed at them and most are due to the generalization that the media has made portraying these parents as mean, self righteous, and abusive. The honest truth is that parents care for their children and are not pushy, but instead they direct their children in becoming good adults by protecting them, encouraging them, and being dedicated to them.…

I’ll go a little deeper and wish to share my thoughts.Let me take the word IF first. The moment we start a sentence with this word, we are sending out vibes of doubt. We are putting condition on potential good actions by doubting that would even happen. Some examples are:1. If I get more money, I will do more charity.2. If I lose some weight, I can fit in that dress and be happy.3.…
