Our Amazing Minds

Our minds are the most amazing part of our being

Able to astound the most cynical of souls

There is so much more to learn about its function

About why some are more intelligent than others

Genetics are certainly part of the equation

What makes a serial killer, what makes a preacher

Are our brains significantly different

Is it the environment, is it in the genes we inherit

So much to learn, a vast unexplored world of the mind

I find it sad that at my stage in life

I won't be around to see what lies just around the corner

In recent times progress has accelerated

This blinding speed can be overwhelming

I hear tell that one day, humans will live FOREVER

Not sure this mere mortal could handle that

But it thrills me to think that this will actually be possible

3D printing is now becoming available

To allow us to grow defective body parts

Absolutely amazing but kind of scary at the same time
