Who I am. Where will it take me?

Possible beginning to my TED speech...
In the future we will constantly be touching screens, gesturing, blinking, and possibly even sending flag signals to satellites. But no matter how far technology brings us we will not want to forget the objects of our past. Ever since there were people, we have been creating things to make things that make our life easier. Somewhere along the line we decided that we have what we need to survive, and can start making things for recreational purposes. These things are what make us people. Things progressed and we began to love them. We need our radios, sitcoms on TVs, and our communication devices. The necessity to communicate turned into the need to share ideas to everyone around us. We have now progressed into this type of communication so far that, we need the capability at our finger tips every minute of every day. Because of this excessive need for communication devices, we are creating more and more, and they pop up everywhere, from shopping malls to airplanes. In the future we will be so bombarded with technology, that we will crave the desire to go back to do things “the old fashioned way.”

Who I am. Where will it take me?
I think I’ve finally had the “aha” moment, where everything just clicks. I know who I am, and I know what I want from life. I know what moves me, and I know that there is absolutely nothing that can slow me down. I’ve made a lot of good choices and I’ve made a lot of bad ones. I always said that I never want to regret anything, but now I know that it’s crippling not to make those mistakes. Yes, I do regret things that I have done in my life. But how a channel that regret is what defines me as a person. I needed them. I’m afraid who I would be without them. Realizing this, I need to keep looking forward, and can’t look back. I can only hope that someday the rest of my world will catch up with me.
