I wish I was a genius

There are times when I look myself and feel almost lost in the crowd, then suddenly someone comes and shows some traits of being genius. At this point I feel further lost in the crowd. Not exactly though, when I see a genius then I always congratulate myself for recognizing the genius. After all only a genius can recognize another genius.

I wish, I was like Einstein, breaking age old concept of time, telling people that you had always been naive to understand the truth. Its like telling them "Oh! don't worry, it was never your fault, you were born intelligent but education ruined you." But I don't want to invent nothing as complicated as relativity. In fact I believe in simple concepts (our time and energy are precious, conserve them). Theories must be as simple as those given by Newton.

I wish, I was like Newton. With a highly rare incident of an apple falling on my head (it really never happened to me), I should have given a theory. A theory so simple, that there is nothing left to be taught about it by the time child crosses 16 years of age. Of course then there are trouble makers like Einstein. Its all because of the creator, the God, (for Atheists and Agnostics, the fault is of creation itself). Why everything has to follow such complex rules, that of Einstein? Why can't the Nature follow whatever Newton said? Why the light had to travel at a constant speed irrespective of the observer? I hate light for observing such behavior. In fact all electromagnetic rays, should be expelled out of the "Nature Community" for making things so much complicated. But then they are useful, let them be there. Lets look for another genius.

I wish, I was Edison. I would never try to make a bulb after 1000 + failures. I don't know but how did he defined one failure? "Oh I forgot to plug in the wire, 1 failure, oh this time i didn't connect the wire into to bulb another failure, the bulb wasn't actually bulb, it was someone's head... oh shit another failure. " Nothing personal, Sir Thomas Elva Edison, I am a little envious of you. I do appreciate your work and also understand your message, or the story tellers' message to try again and again till you succeed. Edison was an engineer, the one who applied the Nature's strange nature to his use. Hence, different from other genius who wanted to know more about Nature.

Of all the three, I like being Newton seems to easiest and interesting. Its like telling all the people "Oh! it was so simple, it never struck you ? I was always wondering why things fell down."

I don't know, I would be able to be like them, still the wish to be like them fill me with a proud feeling, that I can't explain.
