star trek.
1:24 PMThe people who know me best know that I love Star Trek. Now,
I’m not going to give up here on my blog just how much I love Star Trek, but
let’s just say it’s enough for me to be going to the midnight showing tonight!
The thing I loved about Star Trek all growing up—and still
today—is the fact that it isn’t just a TV show; it's a fictional metaphor to
issues our society is facing today. Star Trek teaches respect for other
cultures, to question existing norms, and that we should really think about why
we are doing something before we do it. Sometimes we need to follow the “Prime
Directive,” but sometimes the situation demands a choice to be made beyond
that.
Also, space ships are just pretty dang cool.
I know I know, NERD ALERT! But come on, you can't disagree with me on this one—that's just the great fact about the show.
So, when most of you are sleeping tonight, Josh and I will be going
where no one has gone before!
