The history of the progress of the human race is a history of bright ideas.Looking at the great breakthroughs we have had since civilization began, we see that from time to time there have been individuals and groups who had challenged established beliefs and overcome limitations that had kept back the race.Known history records break thoughts with bright ideas and based on this,we can safety say that even in mankind early days break thoughts had probably been brought about by bright ideas.This trend continues  today as man progresses on wards.
The first bright ideas man had were probably what saved him the trouble of wandering about gathering food.Something - or perhaps even a committee - could have suggested that fire must be kept burning, rather than start a fire every time they wanted to keep warm;others could have come up with bright ideas on how crops could be grown or that animals could up with more and more innovations to improve their lives.We can imagine that tools, such as the wheel,were bright ideas.Other men and women would have built on these ideas, improving on them step by step.
Many of our modern inventions are the result of bright ideas of scientist.These ideas are often break thoughts in experiments of sudden insights.Discoveries by Newton, Einstein, Edison ,and hundred of others began as bright ideas.Many of them led to inventions and other blessing to life.Some of course did not.Some were mixed.Einstein's break through bright idea introduced the Theory of Relativity but also paved the way to other fearful discoveries such as the splitting of the atom, which in turn led to the invention of fearsome nuclear weapons.
In the future too we can look forward to more bright idea improving lives for mankind.With this too, we can expect more evils to be let loose.The present trend in cloning has set forth a host of  possibilities for the race.It is , however, unfortunate that it is also laying the foundation of the future terrors.Like in the past, all we can hope for is that with all the bright ideas, we will also get the brightest ideas of always using all of them for peace.
