Life as we know it

When you combine the natural splendor of nature with the unavoidable pandering commercial advertising that plagues us all, you might get something close to our modern, average life. For despite it seems, popular culture 's best efforts, there instills a certain untouchable seed of interest hidden some deeper than others in, it seems all of us. Not to replace our precious consumerism, just enough to mix onto a sort of awkward hodgepodge, reflecting not only  our perception, but the reality around us. We do indulge in our numerous modern pleasures, but not quite enough to opaque our microscopic lens, so to speak. And in ythe future, who knows how much more our pursuit of knowledge and purpose will converge with our entertainment. This is why, in essence,I remain ambiguous about the past, pessimistic concerning the present, and optimistic for the distant future.
