Youâll get happier and the things that have been going wrong will not result in permanent harm-It getâs better. Lifeâs hard but you have to remember that you can make it through it.hy you shouldnât kill yourself. Suicide is a permanent solution to temporary problems. Whatâs going on now is temporary.

Unfortunately, Griffith was not able to identify the chemical nature of this  transforming principle  beyond the fact that it was able to survive heat treatment. Looking back on Griffith's results, which were published in 1928, the interpretation seems obvious. Today, we know that DNA molecules can renature after heat treatment and that bacteria can take up foreign DNA from the environment by a process that we still refer to as transformation.
For inspiration, Lyell turned to the fifty-year-old ideas of a Scottish farmer named James Hutton. In the 1790s, Hutton had argued that the Earth was transformed not by unimaginable catastrophes but by imperceptibly slow changes, many of which we can see around us today.
