The recent earth quake at Sze Chuan had caught the attention all over the world, people were shocked and mourned with sadness.As we read about those news in the newspaper or on tv and let out a few gasps of shock at the footage we witnessed on how people's life have been destroyed or taken, heart broken by what we've seen. Do you realise how lucky you are to be able to breath freely when at the same time someone is grasping for air to survive??
Tsunami on the end of year 2004, the recent taufan landed on Myammar and the earthquake at Sze Chuan, could all these natural disasters be the way of mother nature telling us we have done enough damage to the earth and its time we start to do something about it?
Lots might say,"Hey, I'm only one person, I can't change the world!".
Yes, but you do can make a difference by starting not to let the water run along when you brush your teeth, by starting take less plastic bags when you go shopping for groceries and by starting recycling.
Some might say," Oh fuck it, all these will only bring inconvenience to me, so why should I do all those shit??"
Well, there are the possibility that the same thing could just happen to you. Imagine what if its your love ones that got buried alive under those concretes or being washed away by the waves?
Don't leave any space for regrets that we haven't done enough to prevent those from happening.
Those natural disasters will just keep on coming if we don't do something about it. Every small things we do, like turn off the lights when not in use, although by doing it might not seem like we change the world, but believe it or not, we are making a difference,even a small one.
You'll never know, you might be the one who saved the world or destroyed it. Take your pick.
Appreciated what you have with you now, don't regret it when its too late.
Go give your love ones a big hug and tell them how much you love them.
I bet you've seen those photos of the Sze Chuan earthquake victims, heart breaking isn't it? Don't let that happen to you.
Make a difference, make the world a better place starting by don't let the tap open when you brush your teeth tonight. Its as simple as that.
