DEDICATION
This book is dedicated to all who wish for a better future. Once the blinders are removed real-life experience will entail a new meaning. Understanding constraints are optional for the adventure. To embrace each single day requires true imagination. There are forces that bounce back and strengthen the willpower. Nevertheless, finding your rhythm helps your position. Time is precious; and, there is a need to reset the bar. Technology appears to be harmless yet it interferes with human nature. The innovation of making things more efficient and reliable is remarkable. But, is it ethical? Beneath the surface it is doing everything to take over your space. Old guidelines and new guidelines are usually misunderstood and not relevant to the times. The complex world is entering a phase that is awesome and unearthly. The blurred lines enter into the future regardless of where you stand.
GENDER DIVERSITY
The bygone years of inbreeding had significantly reduced some of the inherited traits of mankind. The damaged traits carried numerous distinctive features, thus piercing ambiguous appearances. Usually gender identities that are not diversified send out weak messages to the brain cells. Subsequently the delayed responses cause the offsprings to question their genders.
In re evaluating this very personal sensitivity the mind craves to reverse its gender identity. It begins by opposing biological makeup by drastically seeking change. Some dwell with the perception of not belonging, inducing a level of hopelessness. Mental instability pinches in to confuse the dual gender. From time to time, suicide surfaces as a remedy to end the conflicting speculation. Death carries a negative connotation in the realm of ending it all: emphatically, it is largely associated with sadness and grief. By the time the serotonin experiences an imbalance a basket of mixed emotions is released. The lack of stimulants bears physical and psychological health issues.
Like clockwork every sixty seconds an agitated person drops dead. A few cultures are drawn to the past or to the afterlife. In some strange way the ancestral traits were spellbound in the genes.
In many ancient civilizations it was customary to preserve the bloodline by inbreeding and evoking logical setbacks. For instance royal dynasties were regarded as divine. Marriage inside the family circle was widely acknowledged and celebrated. In its simplest form it was universally accepted like spreading butter on toast. The physiological and cognitive deformities in the end consumed their downfall. The inbreeding codified underdeveloped glands with speech impediment and facial distortion. Some members of the Hapsburg dynasty ended with visual abnormalities. In some cases erectile dysfunction deprived the males of their fertility.
Death can be attributed to aging, terminal illness, accidents or self destruction. Just as the light is extinguished a range of sadness fills the carriage with jubilant memories of longevity. By the time the curtains are drawn the passing marks another adieu. A natural death is honorable, allowing the angel of death to take one’s last breath.
Some fatalities are perceived as embodiments of self extinction. The excuse of overdosing on medication signals a poor escape to a rocky farewell. The death clock has no borders; it signifies the end of life. The closure is merciless and unbending. In contrast suicide plainly wraps the final performance with intent. In other words the nail in the coffin was destined before the lights went out. With deliberate intent the victim chose to weigh the pros and cons before stepping off the rails. Obviously, rational justification clinches genuine feelings. A good number of people leave behind a death note posted on the web. The global theme behind each desperate casualty spells out a senseless life. Each skeleton in the closet will leave a trail of shame. Families and loved ones are left behind to deal with the aftermath.
BELLOWS FAMILY
For a period of five years Steve and Janet Bellows were unable to conceive. The unsuccessful tryout period produced a deep strain in their relationship. Like a true martyr, Steve gave into Janet’s demands for a surrogate mother. After weeks of consultation with Dr. Cubic, a surrogate candidate was chosen from Denmark. The Bellows were told that the surrogate mother would carry an embryo that resembled their genetic likeness. Though their biological clocks had ceased they were given the opportunity to have a baby. Debbie, a student from Copenhagen, was willing to bear their child. The funds would help Debbie to complete her MBA program by taking part in project ‘’Tomorrow’’. She was in excellent health and was qualified for three athletic scholarships in swimming.
Dr. Cubic implanted in her the seed for fertilization in the month of August. The journey entailed a two day race inside the reproductive tract. The procedure was high-tech and the body responded to the signals with a winner arriving at the gate.
Before long Steve developed second thoughts about having a baby. At night he embarks on ghostly dreams. The image of drowning the newborn with holy water was just the beginning. The nightly visions reappeared like a curse striking his inner soul. His instinct revealed a perfect vision of Murphy’s Law: something would go wrong. Subconsciously, his senses wanted to ditch the surrogate principle for that thought was no longer appealing. The idea seemed to clash with his heart. The nightly intrusions touted frightful feelings. The anticipation of fatherhood perpetuated water-down emotions. His level of anxiety increased after sorting out what he was giving up. A reflection of speculative thoughts initiated a cast of disturbing annoyances. Pure and simple, the baby would tamper with his well-being. The thought of giving up his weekly poker games was enough to mortify his spirit. No matter how he sliced it, the arrival would jeopardize his freedom and habits. At bedtime the insomnia activated a niche to his madness. With overflowing life-changing habits, how could he ever be ready for the dress rehearsal? The thought of fatherhood felt like
