The TED talk

            I was very caught on this TED talk. It was so interesting that I kept rewinding a few parts to hear what Sir Ken Robinson had to say, because it really caught my ears. what struck me the most was how he pointed out the two different types of global warnings, one being natural resources and the other being a crisis of human resources. He said, "Humans make very poor use of their talents." I was very surprised to hear him speak of this issue going on around the world, not only that but it occurs mostly with minorities and the reason being education. our education now a days is like a routine, its not something that relates to a pleasure we have or something we enjoy doing, which is why we lose interest and many minorities go unknown of their talents. After watching this video and hearing him speak about having a passion for something, which is where it brings out your talents, I felt i could finally make my life decision of who I want to be. I have always had an immense love for animals. This past summer I went to a rodeo in Mexico and I got to ride a horse. Horses are my favorite animal aside from dogs, but what i love most is the feeling I get when i ride them. I had been riding this horse for about and hour when my whole family went to eat and they asked me if i wanted to eat, I was very hungry,  but I didn't want to get off the horse so I told them that I would eat later on. Eventually my cousin asked me if I wanted, I could eat on the horse and immediately I said yes. Soon enough what turned into 4 hours of riding seemed to me like 10 minutes. I have a big passion for animals and since the moment I realized it I became interested in being a veterinarian or a vet technician. Its something I have always put a lot of thought in, but I think I'm sure of what I want to be now. Thank you Sir Ken Robinson.
