I talked about genetically enhanced human beings
a few months ago suggesting that an interesting add-on to humans would be the ability to sleep 5 hours or less per day. The idea is not that bad, but sleeping
is required because your brain gets tired of all the information you face everyday.
How about two different enhancements instead?. First,
adrenaline emulation control.
You achieve the best of your physics and mind capabilities when your body releases the chemicals named
epinephrine and
norepinephrine, along with the hormone
cortisol. Depending on the amount released you can do incredible things like jumping from one building to another, ala Matrix.
However, when your body runs out of these, fatigue jumps in and you're a complete waste. Imagine if you could just buy
adrenaline enhancers the same way you buy orange juice! A quick injection and you get a full emulation of the worst scary moment ever; then
voilá! adrenaline is released and you're ready to give 150% of performance.
Now is when you start talking about risks and possible mental disorders, but in my opinion, just put in the safety label something like: "
don't take more than X adrenaline enhancers per day" and "
customers who bought the adrenaline enhancer also bought hyper-relaxer pro" - which could probably be the counterpart making you run out of energies and forcing you to rest.
Tomorrow i'll continue with the second part of the Two Wishes.

:: I had a dream, which was not all a dream
I can remember... the feeling of tears coming up, tiers of sorrow and grief. And regret... Containing them hardly. Change the subject and smile?. No, keep talking. Keep saying the things you feel. This is when. She wants to hear you. Her eyes locked on you, saying a million things without moving her lips. Do the same, think carefully, talk slow, focus on her eyes, the words are coming by themselves...
... wake up.
I touched her heart... hell i surely did!!! Should not be posting here. You learn to like someone when you find out what makes her laugh, but you can never truly love someone until you find out what makes her cry.

:: Never ruin an apology with an excuse
True remorse is never just a regret over the consequences of what you made wrong; it is a regret over the motives you had in the first place, even if you can't understand them.
Before searching for forgiveness, analyze the motives of your actions before the consequences. What made you act that way? How many exits you had before deciding to lock yourself inside? Then learn that the very first mistake you made was opting to act that way - or sometimes, not to act at all against something.
Learn to never make the same mistakes again, understand that the situation forced you to take the wrong decisions and that consequences - as bad as they can be - made you wiser in the end.
Then try to heal the harm you caused with the best of efforts.

:: Forgiveness comes from Comprehension
You really forgive someone when you finally understand whatever reason motivated him to hurt you. But, understanding the reason is not justifying the damage, instead, it means having clear that self-limitations, blindness, ignorance and/or simple stress made that person act that way.
You must understand the fact that in that particular moment and situation, due to the very particular circumstances back then, there was no other choice for that person but to hurt you.
Certainly it was inevitable. Because if it weren't, that person wouldn't have caused any harm to you in the first place.

:: something went terribly wrong
The Union Aerospace Corporation, an arm of the most powerful conglomerate on Earth, has been performing secrets experiments in their base on mars, tapping into the very fabric of the universe itself and beyond.
UAC scientists have made discoveries that will forever change human existence. Then something went terribly wrong...

Just as i'm finally willing to change my attitude, willing to bring back my human side and smile. It comes the IT department and blocks IM access...
There you go, social whore!. So you though you had found a way to actually enjoy your work time? SCREW IT!!. We cannot allow you to become a social person, because if you do, sooner or later you'll realize that you don't want to work in a boxed cubicle for a lifetime and leave us. We must protect you from social interaction and other things like joy and life. We need you trapped here, geek, isolated, if you lose the focus on the monitor more than two seconds, we'll punish you.
It's too late assholes! I'm outta herrre!
