Why do we need to reflect?
We reflect because by nature we always see that chace of a second chance, we reflect on mistakes, we reflect on the things we want for our lives in the future, in short we reflect on every entity that matters to us while we are alive.
However my intention in this post is not to show you all the things we can reflect on, but to show you my reasons about some things that I reason about because I always want to show a change in my life that can transport me to better opportunities.
The idea is that each of you after reading this post compare my priorities of reflection with yours and take some time to answer about the arguments why each of you reflect in this life.
There is something for which I am lately entering into deep reflections, and that is the fact that I think about the inheritance in culture, knowledge and way of life that I can pass on to my daughter so that for all decency there are marked points from the past that can last forever. For example, we are already living in a digital and technological era that allows our children to trace our old works, the way we think and all that we can leave on social networks.
Sometimes I think that a grandchild of mine who may not have the opportunity to meet me can use any social network like youtube or these same platforms where I share my content and see my photos, my videos when I explain about engineering, mathematics, they can check my writings on philosophy, education, and finally they can know so much about me.
It is not like nowadays, where I in the present asked about my ancestors and there is no information about my great-great-grandparents that I can verify and know maybe in essence why I am in some particular way or who I may resemble in the way I act.
All this deep reflection makes me come to the conclusion that I will spend many years writing on blockchain platforms with the intention of leaving a legacy that can be verifiable in the future and that my grandchildren can know about.
Another very important reflection is the fact that if I decide to change from a classic, city lifestyle to a more uncluttered lifestyle where I can have a quiet chat with my wife where we are both getting older and talk about how things may be on the planet in years to come, I will certainly be able to talk in that relaxed atmosphere about how I have a vision of the future seeing cars flying and people teleporting from one place to another without being seen.
In conclusion, I believe that the reasons why we can enter into reflection at every moment can be infinite, but the best thing is that every time we have the opportunity to reflect, it will surely be to live and act in a better way.
Hi @carlos84
Reflecting on our actions is necessary for our own emotional health, good that you consider continuing on this type of platforms and projecting with your wife the plans for the future.
Best regards, be well.
Greetings @ carlos84
An excellent post that puts a lot of weight on it and prompts me to do a self-analysis on things today about the future. It is very true what you say we do not have any truthful argument, more than what our parents and grandparents can tell us about our ancestors , but today with technology I think if we will leave our history a little more visible for our future generations and descendants .
Thanks for sharing
Hello dear friend @carlos84, I found your article very good and as your title very thoughtful, As content creators we have the possibility to leave footprints in the digital age where our children will find a piece of us and will have as you say a history of writing to teach to our future generation.
Before so much evolution technology the reflection is necessary, until then brother, that you have an excellent weekend.
