Ant’s effort to labor for its future. “Why bother about winter?” said the Grasshopper; “we have got plenty of food at present” (Martin, n.d.). Therefore, when the winter season arrived, the Grasshopper was unprepared and hungry, while the Ant was full and content.

His inspiration for the lyrical nature of the Elvish language also came from hearing the traditionally sung oral presentation of the Kalevala. This source is…

Thus backwards causation is a matter involving external time, and less so personal time. This is why we say events in the future cause events in the past, because we are referencing external time. However, on personal time, events from the past (starting time travel) caused events in the future (arriving in the past). In backwards time travel, what is earlier in personal time is later in external time. The distinctions between external time and personal time…

Arming pilots For many years the question has been asked, “is arming pilots a good idea?”. I personally believe that pilots should be but others may argue differently. The idea of arming pilots today isn’t a topic that was always thought of. As a matter of fact, the idea was proposed after the attacks on the World Trade Centers on September 11, 2001. Before those attacks were carried out, the idea was unheard of. After the attacks however, this was an idea a lot of…

In a single lifetime, there are several paths that rise upon action. Every step, every turn can take you off course. It can change the path that you wanted to follow. We’ve all been lost on a path, we’ve all taken a stroll for a period of time that we wished would disintegrate from everyone’s memory. No matter what happens, no matter the length, I believe that the right path is still waiting to be travelled down. It may take months, most likely years, but everyone will step on that path. The one…

Nevertheless, I was distressed to conceive more worries because it will take an eternal life to explain all my future misgivings. So for my brain to recline, I started to go off topic and examined the airplane, see people create a scene for William Shakespeare to write another romantic novel in the arrival section and more.
