SynthesisedTaoIt's easy to abstract electricity as something exterior to the human experience. Relative to the entire history of academic study, the application of electricity in technology is fairly recent! But electricity has been part of humanity, and indeed most fauna, since its inception as part of your nervous system. It wouldn't be inappropriate to say that you *are* electricity, defining your self as the impulses travelling from your brain to your body and causing actions that impact your world. This being said, electricity is famously dangerous! Over the past 20 years, over 2,500 people have died from electrocution in industrial scenarios alone. Over 100 people have died from lightning strikes, and lightning does not strike people often! Nonetheless, I think its impact is impossible to deny. We need electricity to exist, so it being dangerous to us isn't really a factor. If we removed electricity, we wouldn't improve the death rate, because we'd all be inert. ESSENTIA - 5 - You cannot live without it. GLORIA - 4 - Arousing in small amounts. CRUCIA - 3 - For a natural phenomenon, it really isn't that common for it to kill somebody. CULTIVAR - 4 - Lightning is, to pardon, very striking, and it is a common point of metaphor in art. AWE - 4 - If you've seen lightning strike nearby, you felt the world stop for a moment.
