Pondering the Obvious

We're all in this together

There are a few theories in science that I love more than others. I love the idea of entropy, of the world tending towards chaos regardless of your actions. I love using the laws of thermodynamics, cuz not being able to create or destroy matter/energy is a good reason to take life a little slower.

Then there's evolution.

I've been thinking about a few little kids in my life. They all seem way frickin' smart. I don't have any statistics on this, but perhaps humans are evolving and we only know how to define it, label it in terms of things that are wrong, like ADD.

A mom I know was told that her child needs to figure out how to follow rules and stand in line better, as well as a host of other conformities, as per the guidelines of the government. And I'm all for not leaving any child behind, but are these definitions, these labels, ultimately attempting to hold back evolution?

I think I better get out of the house tomorrow...

Song: From a cheestastic tv movie High School Musical. Yeah, I am, personally, not a sign of evolution...
