NatureVsNurture

It is my predisposition to say that I take ones genetics as of an utmost importance and one that takes priority over the nurture phenomenon in Mother Nature.  Although it takes an equilibrium of the two to make the fine intelligent which is not extreme in either sense.  But generally speaking I would like to make an analogy to a glass of Coca Cola. If you can see the glass as ones genetics and the liquid inside the glass the cola as nurture then you can see that genetics is the “dark matter” that holds everything together.  It is the hard wiring in our cerebellum that makes the greatest difference in an individuals agility to think rationally and to say the least thinking in line with common sense. In this discourse I am only going to refer to the human mind.  Therefore if you want to talk about athleticism then this is not the place for that because the discussion in idea really refers to everything about you. It’s either your genetics or the way you were nurtured what not only counts but is at stake.

For instance, I believe that I am genetically superior to the common man. Of course, I don’t think I’m the best. I’m good at some things and bad at some others only because I’ve been nurtured in such an environment or in that scope. These days I am into nurturing myself into becoming a better person and a more evolved one and that I’m trying to take advantage of the fact that I am genetically inclined on the grand scale. Well of course there are going to be some people better than me and there are going to be some people that are not so competitive. I believe I have a nice glass; and now, I won’t to fill it with different fluids (e.g., books that I read).

I believe you can improve this equilibrium well into the human aging. You have to gather everything you know and it would be better if you can identify what caused it: genetics or nurturing. I challenge you to give me the benefit of the doubt and ask you to see this balance as a conic glass and cola that forever grows vertically from the table up. All you’re doing is restructuring the ideas in you already. You are making different connections but I don’t know you’re situation so I want to say it’s the Frank McGuiness’s Good (California State University Northridge, 2001). What you ultimately want to do is exhaust your glass or your genetics. You can make it last but you must push its limits. Be careful and smooth, don’t rebel. Stay in line with what you already know, knock the foundations (Descartes) and build again. Build well and test the foundations again and again.
