Abstract - The Theme For This Week


Am I ready to blog about the theme for this week -  “ABSTRACT”?

I don’t think so. I am not sure what abstract is. And the wonderful posts that have been put up by my friends have not made me wiser either.

Googling tells me that abstract could mean so many things: but what I chose to emphasis in this article was “Difficult to understand.”

And what more do I need to think of? Rather than the innumerable number of answer papers that I have read in my life.

Here’s a report on nuclear power stations written by a student. Can there be anything more abstract?

Nuclear power stations is important process for the power plants. This is important for the our country. This is more produced for the current. But nuclear power plant is dangerous for the people. The nuclear power station is important for all the country.

The important for the selecting site for nuclear power stations.

The nuclear power stations is dangerous power plant. This nuclear power plant is used for the atoms.

The nuclear power station is placed for not lives for people. 3 to 5 km distance for the placed for the nuclear power station.

The nuclear power station is placed for a sea. This is cooling purpose for the nuclear power plants.

The wall thickness  ... This is not laser to atom laser not outside for the atom leaser.

The works safety suits and helmet and other things used for the nuclear power station. The atoms is more power for the power plants. This is called as the nuclear power station. This is important process for the power plant.

If this is not difficult to understand, that too written by an engineering student, what is?

And do I have something really abstract?  Yes, the painting drawn by my darling niece. She is a very good artist for her age. And here is one of her paintings.


And when we asked her what was underneath the sun that looked liked a banana peel to us. Pat came the reply, “That’s sunlight,” she said, looking surprised that we could not understand.  It was modern art and abstract to me, not to her four-year-old mind.

  3. The drawing is beautiful and the reasoning behind the banana peel so logical, once explained. I guess we adults do lose the ability to think in simple terms somewhere along the way.

  4. The main problem is that we always think we know everything.
