07-07-07, comes once in a lifetime. But so are many others things in life, they come only once and if u're lucky to chance upon it. However, most of it are oblivious to it and they just miss out.
Live earth 2007, a concert to promote awareness towards the environment. How much impact does it really hv on us? Are those present really affect and in tune with the message being sent? Or are they just present for the song n 'partying'??
Nevertheless, let's take it that most of us learnt much from it, will we ever do anything bout it? Do we not care more bout the comfort of our homes, fully equipped with swimming pools n air conditioning running 24 hrs a day? Or our cars, carelessly driven here, there and everywhere! Distances which could be conquered by foot or public transport is forsaken for our cars.
We always think that we are only 1 person of millions so what we as a singular unit does hv no effect on the larger population. So u might think that for e.g. 99 out of a 100 is throwing garbage about, so what impact might I, as ONE out a 100 ( 0.01%) hv if i recycle my garbage?
Helen keller's proverb : ' I am only one person and is unable to do everything. But i can do smth. And becoz i am unable to do everything, i will not stop myself from doing that smth which i can.'
* i think it runs smth like that....*
SO our living earth might not be living much longer if we continue with our current trend. I think we all need a hard slap on our faces to wake us up to the reality that mother nature is just like any other woman; she's unpredictable, wrathful n most of all revengeful! And we need to do our best to keep her temperate and preventing her from venting her anger on us
*note: hurricanes, tsunami's, earthquakes... *
We all hv a part to play in this world and it's a role we must play. But im just gonna put it off a lil while longer since well, i have billions of other ppl doing the same. XD
Apparently mine was wrong....
Corrected from Ying : i am only one,but still i am one.I cannot do everything but still i can do something,and because i cannot do everything,i will not refuse to do that something that i can do."
