Life science- the lost love

Mathematics is not meant for all, logics of C++ aren't meant to be logical for all. But then, there was a subject that was loved by people who hated calculations and logical expressions. It was very much scientific. It told stories about how earth evolved the life, how atmosphere was sustaining too many gases at a time. It paved a way to study about the origin and the end, about daily metabolism, about creatures apart from humans, about plants, about little fellows who work secretly in the stomach. It showed the logic in a way different from Java, it helped finding the deadliest terrorists of all, that would not be cured easily. It discovered virus. It became the bedrock of an occupation alternative to engineering. It made doctors. But some took it to a larger extent, they combined it with maths and computers to give it a new name- Biotechnology. A key to all cures and preventions. A subject that was hoped to to provide for thousands of aspiring biologists. But then, came big enterprises that build huge buildings with fascinating equipments to lure biologists but only to make them sell. Out of thousands they chose only 2 or 3, rest were left to be on their own. And again they were left with logics expressed with C++, with solutions given in numbers. The minds which once ignited with flame to cure and discover were again buried with burden of something that they have always hated. Science, that they had chosen long ago in school betrayed their lives. May be that's why its called the Life Science...
