Blame theory!! you have got to read this...

My believe is that atleast every person on this planet has got a mentor, that person that leads his life or that person that he believe he or she should model his/her life after. I have mentors too.
Among my mentors, there is one that i really just admire, this is an artist, am not an artist myself atleast as per the dictionary definition that i know. This guy is just great, i always read the scribbles of his interviews, oh my mentor passed away.
In my mentors interviews i got some wsidom, this was a general thing but i did zero to the wisdom of the blame people. Our lives are characterized by people saying, oh X refused to do Y and therefore caused Z. It is more visible in the planet politics, people say that others were supposed to have done some stuff and when they refused they caused some things to happen, yeah blaming.
Now here is the lesson, in an interview, this person, i mean my great mentor said , if they accuse you of not doing something or rather if one blutantly says that you killed guys by your actions, it is not important for you to convince or rather exit by saying that you did not cause their deaths , all that is important is the fact that YOU DID NOT SAVE THOSE WHO DIED. Therefore to be fair to humanity you have got to try and make it an obligation to save humanity.
The moral is that every person should see blames in a positive sense as a kind of expectation that the society has got or rather expects from you.

hope i get inspiration from a great person,

see a paraphrased quote from this great person below:
"I am not saying that i will change the world, but i can guarantee that i will spark the brain that will change the world"

Technology for the third world students

To be a technology student is a great thing particularly if you are from the third world, i cant comment how it feels for the technology students from the other side of the divide because myself am from the third world side.
Human existence has seen so many change, Agrarian revolution, industrial revolution and then what can be called information revolution. I have a mind that tells me that this last revolution is the best of them because in it there are chances of seeing a possibility of equality and fair chances because, in my perspective as a student in iformation technology am able to achieve as much as a student in the developed world.
The fact that we can get facilities like free books and overwelming free information from the internet makes this possible.
One other very important thing that i think in my view is an advantage is the fact that the basic resource for the technology student, IT in this case is the PC which if added the free software that we have available to us just gets everything going, thanks to the great people like Richard Stallman who believe that "it doesnt make alot of sense to spend your life building walls to divide humanity, it just kills interraction and hence development".
Imagine in our local colleges we are trying to make everyone embrace open source and work harder to give returns to this field, the open source field that has been a great blessing people in the third world.
Hope that whoever reads this finds something positive in this whole thing.
Thanks friends on the internet.
