of today will inevitably influence the future. Technological advancements, scientific discoveries, and politics are some driving forces that contribute to the fate of the human race. It lies on us to determine the future for our children, which is a critical decision not to be taken lightly. Based on our chosen path and modern technology, I suspect that our present will soon evolve into a dystopia, similar to the ones portrayed in Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and in the motion picture of The Giver
