What is Humility in Humanity?

Hello my future friend! My name is Emily Cauble, and I am looking forward to sharing my thoughts with you on a variety of topics and entering this new world of blogging. First, I want to explain what this blog is about or at least what my vision is for the blog.

This blog is named "Humility in Humanity", because, as a human being, I have learned how important it is to have or embrace humility as we stumble along this journey called life. We often get stuck in this spot of "good things" versus "bad things". It is very easy as humans to compartmentalize our experiences so we can process them more efficiently. The problem with this compartmentalization is that we will eventually develop a habit in experiencing our life with a "this or that" mentality. What about the in-between moments that we are missing?

These in-between moments are precious moments of time for learning and curiosity. We live in a world where instant gratification is at our fingertips, which, in my opinion, has diminished our drive or desire to learn. Now, I am not talking about grabbing a 50 year old textbook layered with dust and read it from front to back. I am referring to learning about the world around us: how do things work, why does my mind do this, why does my body do that, etc. That is where this blog comes in.

My goal for this blog is to provide fun, insightful articles about how the world works. Specifically, I want to share information about various scientific or medical topics, while exploring the intersection between science and humanity. My hope is that as you read these posts, a curiosity is sparked in you so that you have the desire to explore whatever is calling you, and maybe learn a little along the way.

Thank you for joining me on this journey.

Stay humble, and let's learn something together.
