The past few days I've been freezing, because of the refusal to wear appropriate clothing. It is April, I should be able to wear shorts and a t-shirt without freezing. So, the stubborn streak forces me to do so, even though I'm tremendously uncomfortable.
Why can't I just accept that there are things in this world beyond my control, like the weather? Because technology has given us the capacity to change, no, to master, so many things about our lives. It's no longer us versus environment.
It also makes those things which we can't change that much more difficult to accept. So, what happens when we finally get to the point when weather is perfect, and we can control it? Hell, China is attempting to seed clouds with silver in order to get them to rain early, so the Olympic opening ceremonies aren't dripped on. When does technology go too far? Has it already gone too far?
