Elusive as it may be, the human race has, and will always, search for meaning. The need for this fulfillment is a fundamental part of the human condition for man and woman alike; however, gaining one’s definition is a mysterious and arduous task. The path to finding meaning is often treacherously opaque and deceptive, so when someone believes they have solved the riddle of gaining fulfillment, they are prone to advertise their findings.

Analysis of the US-China Trade The U.S. trade deficit has risen more or less steadily since 1992. In the second quarter of 2004, the trade deficit relative to GDP surpassed the 5 percent mark for the first time.

Digital technology has opened new horizons for the human art of thinking and creating knowledge. However, there are risks for humanity in terms of access and human development.

There is a saying “walk in a mile in my shoes…then maybe you’ll understand why I do, what I do.” This quote is a bit longer than the usual “put yourself in someone else’s shoes,” but they essentially ask a person to take a moment and try to see the perspective of another person to understand them.
