Standing Tall

We stand tall because we stand on the shoulders of those that came before us
-------------Yoruba Proverbs

I am presently working on doing a self-exploratory analysis. I am trying to point out what went into making me who I am, NOW. The steps I took involved:

1. Creating a table with three column
   
2. Thinking of everything that makes me ME and list under the heading "Individual Component"; they include my name, languages spoken, clothes you wear, music you like, food you eat, your home, relationship with your friends, your job, education, your hobbies, political deposition, sexual orientation, culture. These has been listed on the first row
   
3. The 2nd column has been named the "Sense Affected". It will be a cluster of all my "Individual Components" into the senses the affect (all the five sense plus, the general act of speaking "speech", "sexual", "mood" and "orientation").
4. The last column would now reflect the resources employed towards providing that Components that make me ME.

This is how far I have been able to go.

Individual Component		Sense Affected		Resources Employed
My name - Seyi Osinowo		Speech		The English & Yoruba Language
				Parent
				Grand Parents
				Societal Status
				Culture
Sexual Preference		Sexual		Peer pressure
		Taste		Access to media information
		Smell		Society's concept of sexual beauty
		Sight		Genetic disposition
		Touch
		Hearing

Developing this report is quite complex due to the limited abilities of applied metrics to quantify every single aspect of the human experience. A full report will deviate from the point of this article.
Explore this; how did we get here? How am I able to communicate ideas and present these issues to you? Making sense over the internet requires a range of professional advisory from fields to include:

1. Software engineers
2. Computer programmers
3. Hardware engineers
4. Business analysts
5. Wireless technologists
6. Lawyers
7. Economists
8. Finance specialists
9. Teachers
10. Me (obviously)
    

The aspect here evaluated is the resources employed. Many people came together to make my present experience a reality. While a man sat under a tree trying to grapple the concept of gravity, another man was persecuted because he stated that the earth is round. All these combined efforts has been gathered by physical and mental systems towards defending our rights to survive within the environment we conceptualized.

As humans today, the knowledge economy is our strength. The future that is path dependent; implying that it depends on our collective effort in developing a reasonable today. All previous efforts, when effectively applied, should work at driving the senses of possible consumers towards being able to produce value that syncs with the overall objective of our the society. In other word, long term success depends on how sharp our collective senses are. More importantly, these sense should be aligned with the overall society's objective.

I strongly doubt the level of alignment and sharpness of our collective senses. Why, is a topic for another day.
