Coffee & Cigarettes

The name is Clara.

I was born in the year of the Horse.

In this vast yet miniscule world we live in, technology has allowed us to both express ourselves while simultaneously disengaging ourselves from our surroundings.  Nevertheless this disengagement has, in an ironic way, created a new sense of awareness of the world in a manner that was unheard of 10 or 15 years ago.

Technology has given us the power to communicate, create and destroy. We’ve witnessed this several times throughout history, most significantly through the creation of the internet, the industrial revolution and the atomic bomb.

Technology is by no means evil, and to a certain degree neither are we as humans. We just have the tendency to misuse the power the ability to create has granted us.

I feel safe to assume that one of the constant human struggles is to become better human beings.
