I am limited in my ability to think ahead and to develop a picture of the future, by the way world has been perceived by my mind thus far. I begin to surprisingly question myself whenever I am conducting research that what new can I possibly discover when so much has already been explored. I get this frightful feeling that my mind might saturate in its ability to grasp and preserve more knowledge upon acquisition, when I look at the limits of a computer's memory. In such cases, perceptions have although broadened my knowledge, they have also acted to restrict my level of thinking for the future, as I have begun to compare the marvelous and divine creation of a brain, which has never been revised since the inception of humanity, with that of a human creation of a computer, which is revised every year with the hopes of continuing to meet the Moore's Law.
I must begin to think out of the mental landscape sketched out by my perceptions because there lies much more in this world that cannot be perceived because it has not yet been physically realized. It can only be thought of with a belief that the divine creation is much superior than our discoveries, there lie far greater possibilities than so far experienced, and we can achieve the next vaguely plausible idea given our present knowledge acquired through past perceptions. We must never stop questioning, never stop thinking ahead. Our perceptions must only strengthen our knowledge not limit its extent.
