Nature Versus Nurture: Take Your Pick

 

For today, can we pick our brains more as an exercise?  And I thought that WHILE  NATURE and NURTURE CAN'T be an apples-to-apples, I thought we can still make do with it from the perspective of GROWTH.  So, the question to us is this:  Would you rather things will grow like NATURE?  OR would you rather NURTURE things to grow even in an organic OR exponential way?  To pre-empt you, let me shout out that I prefer NURTURING💚💛💜

You might challenge me, WHY NURTURE if things can grow either organically like NATURE?  I'll quip that WHERE we were born because of NATURE, WHAT we will become has to be attributed to NURTURING.  Through the years, the silent debate has been raging in the labworks of researchers BUT to put things in perspective, NATURE and NURTURE both play a role in WHO we are WHILE the interplay between NATURE and NURTURE will remain influential💥💥💥

On the other hand, there is a huge disconnect I've witnessed many times through the years WHEN people would rely on NATURE to takes its course for things to evolve.  WHICH is a super huge disconnect there because it becomes akin to us leaving things AS IS for us to do nothing from thereon except for things to evolve and progress as we want it to me.  WHERE does our role come into play then❓❓❓

One example of WHEN the argument of NATURE versus NURTURE arises is WHEN a person achieves a high level of academic success.  Another sort of boring example is that 'perfect pitch' of a musical tone and researches showed that that ability tends to run in families and as such, it could be tied to a single gene.  BUT the studies also showed that possessing that gene is NOT enough as musical training during early childhood is needed for that inherited ability to manifest itself over time.  Same with height which can be inherited BUT if the child grows in a deprived environment, he may NOT grow taller❎❎❎

Our takeaway is plainly simple.  Let's peg nature to that planted seed BUT from that point onwards, that planted seed needs to be NURTURED.  On the same breadth, there are numerous things we are gifted by NATURE BUT there lies that innate responsibility for us to own the NURTURING part so that whatever nature has invested in us will continue to grow and evolve.  Enough of us being parasites of NATURE WHEN that's uncalled for dude😡😡😡
