Ramblings Of A Teenage Mind. I can't exactly say what I plan to write about in this little journal. By doing that, I would give expectations and I'm not so sure I'd fulfill those due to my complete randomness and bad habbit of not updating.

Reflective Essay.

Biology Essay.
This is an essay that I had to write and read inside Biology. Why? I have no clue. Anyways, it won't be too good due to the fact we only had about five minutes to write it. I know it's weird for someone to post a silly essay on here but I feel a bit strongly about the issue I wrote about so I figured I'd share my views. I'm not forcing you to take my opinion on this subject, not at all, I'm just stating my opinion.

Protecting an endangered species is upsetting natural selection. It's interfering by causing an imbalance. Also, it limits their exposure to the wildlife and turns them into a profit.

Humans already get involved with nature by killing things for sport rather than survival. This causes an imbalance in the order and certain things die off quicker than others. By protecting an animal, we are disallowing the predators to kill it and extending the life of a species that perhaps may have been extinct otherwise. The dieing of one species could lead to the developement of a newer one.

An animal becomes isolated from their natural habitat during it's protection. Thus, not able to be free or do things it should or did do. It's not stable because of the quick change and that could lead to it's death anyways.

Zoos tend to buy endangered or rare species because humans are curious and willing to pay in order to settle their curiousity about an animal. This turns a once free species into a simple piece of property and merchandise.

"Protecting" a species from extinction is just really killing it in a sense of the word or sometimes literally. We're offsetting the harmony balance of life.

Our Own Happiness.
Aristotle once said that "Happiness depends upon ourselves." This is a simple meaning that most humans can't seem to grasp. I am not saying this about all of humanity but most people blame their unhappiness and sorrow on others. We have the habbit of alluding the fault to someone other than ourselves. Telling others that "My upbringing wasn't good so that's why I'm angry all the time." I don't mean to sound cruel-hearted when I say this but honestly, that has nothing to do with it. Just because you may not live in the best environment or homestead, doesn't mean that you have to be anything but happy. Yes, it is harder to find the good things in life but they are still there. Instead of focusing on the negative, your home being unsuitable, think of it as a growing experience. Put the attention on your friends and on what you have instead of what you don't. No matter how dark the world can appear, there will always be light. Even if it is small. It exists and it can be found. Rather than feeling down, change something you dislike and find that little piece of happiness.
