Night Vision


No human being can see in the dark without the presence of light. However, there have been reports that there are a few individuals who are capable of doing this. It may sound absurd to some but they really exist. No, they are not super heroes. Although they seem to possess the ability of the famous super heroes whom we watch on the television or movies or read on the comic books. 


Nong Youhui, the blue-eyed Chinese kid from Dahua, southern China is reported to possess an ability to see in the dark. Several tests were given to him to prove his ability to see in the dark. According Mail Online, the child was given a set of questionnaires which he was able to answer in pitch black. Eye Specialists were also consulted about Nong's night vision but they have no definite findings about it except that the child possess a perfectly good eyesight. But Nong Youhui is not alone with this kind of gift. In Baringo, Kenya, siblings Dennis and Winny Litei, who are 12 and 8 respectively, also possess the ability to see in the night without any artificial lighting. But just like the rest of the super heroes except for Batman and Robin from DC and Iron man, Hawkeye and Black Widow from Marvel, they also have a weakness. Their eyes are extremely sensitive in broad daylight which makes them squint and blink a lot. 


When I was a kid, I wanted to become a superhero just like the rest of the other kids I knew. I wanted to have the ability to fly and see through walls just like my favorite superhero, Superman. Thankfully, I outgrew it became contented for being human who has no problems seeing in broad daylight. I may not possess a night vision just like these three great kids but what are the outdoor wall lights and other artificial lighting for?

What Man Needs To Survive

Oftentimes you hear people say that there is no place like home or home sweet home. For it is only in the security and comfort of our homes where we can be ourselves. No pretensions. No reservations. No awkward moments. It is only in our home where we can shed the mask that we oftentimes use to face the world. 


Other than food and clothing, shelter is also one of the basic needs of man in order to survive. Yet you see a lot of homeless and starving people every where. People who are living in the streets and begging for alms. People who are depending in the charity of others. Being poor is not bad, but when you are not doing anything to alleviate your financial status and keeps blaming the government for your poor financial status then you need to reevaluate your self. Wanting to improve your lifestyle is not wrong unless you step on other people and use them for your personal gain or do something against the law just to achieve it. Notable people like Benjamin Franklin, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States, Genghis Khan, the founder and the emperor of the Mongol Empire, Manny Pacquiao, a Filipino professional boxer and politician, and Oprah Winfrey, a philanthropist and the talk show host of the multi-award-winning talk show The Oprah Winfrey Show, were not born with a silver spoon yet they rise above everyone because of their strong characters, hard works and beliefs. 


With money, you can all the things you need. You will have food to eat, clothes to wear and a roof above your head. You can hire the best architect to design the house of your dreams with outdoor wall lights lining up your patio and a large garden where you can enjoy an outdoor meal with your love ones.
