What am I about?

We've heard me talking alot about of bugs none stop in this whole spectrum of logical and scientific pursuits but is that really what I am trying to say...? Bugs are cool, but what is cooler is your abilities to recognize the impact and different outcomes from your actions.

One moment in life someone could ask you what you are doing then ask you why, then why again. If any of your answers were I don't know you should reach down and ask yourselves why? ...Why do I do what I do when I know its not what I should be doing? I've spent alot of my life asking myself why and answering for myself. I feel like I am a better stronger person for it. Alot of this can be very hard to explain in life when you don't even know why you do do something. It's very hard to grip sometimes.

How it ties into the bugs has to do with the first time I was asked why by my father when I was young and frying ants with a magnifying glass. When he asked me what I was doing I instinctively I reacted ashamed and I felt horrible. In the end I decided I did not know. From that moment on I never did anything without making sure to myself that it would be okay to do so. This was a major turning point for me, I started asking my friends why and I think it encouraged us all to become more intelligent and much more independant.

I think everyone can gain something from this factor, I know its not much but it is how I truely do feel in the end of my talk. I thank every last person who learned and listened to me.
