As humanity, we always admire how far we come from our primitive ancestors and we see these changes in different perspectives. Some are good, such as the capability of using clean energy and the amount of peace that is within the world, and some are bad like innovations in weapons to kill large amounts of the opposing side, but there is one specific creation of man that society prefers to reflect on. This creation is like a diluted mirror, it shows us our greatest accomplishments and all the spectacular task it does for us, but it doesn’t show us what it leaves behind in its wake. It doesn’t show how it makes us into hollow shells that no longer contain the fire of humanity. This terrible innovation has quenched the fire that makes us human by quelling the kindle of knowledge and the igniting power of thought.
