Welcome to Awakenings

Life IS history in the making. Every word we say, everything we do becomes history the moment it is said or done. Life void of memories leaves nothing but emptiness. For those who might consider history boring, think again: It is who we are, what we do and why we are here. We are certainly individuals in our thoughts and deeds but we all germinated from seeds planted long, long ago.

 Science Fiction Day 

Sci-fi is a popular genre of books, videos and movies providing a mixture of excitement, adventure, mystery, horror and even romance. What truly makes it so enticing is the ever-lasting question that seeks an answer from the future, "What if that really happened?" January 2 was chosen as National Science Fiction Day because that day is the birthday of science fiction great Isaac Asimov
An influential vision came with a 1950 release, the story collection I, Robot, which looked at human/construct relationships and featured the Three Laws of Robotics. (The narrative would be adapted for a blockbuster starring Will Smith decades later.) Asimov would later be credited with coming up with the term "robotics." [Source: Biography.com]
