Why can’t we save this world by recycling


I recently got hitched and since then my shopping list has grown enormously. And though I have been enjoying it, I’ve also grown sort of depressed. The cause is the kind of waste we create every other day. We have bottles, plastic bags and empty tins to just name a few.
.
Now, I know the first world is way ahead of us in terms of recycling. But I just wonder if we can take some kind of global responsibility on anything we see wasteful. Like making sure used bottles and tins end up in the right place for refuse or safe disposal.

Can we just try and be efficient in our own unique ways. Outsmart yourself, is what I meant to say. For example, we all ought to separate our kitchen and other household wastes—not the kind meant for the sewer line for Christ’s sake—by putting them in a smaller bags in the hope that it will ease the effort of someone sifting through our wastes, trying to recycle it. I’m so conscious of this effort that when I go shopping I’m never embarrassed to carry my own household shopping bag whenever I can.

And when the item is so small and single, and I’m without my shopping bag, I offer to forgo the plastic bag and carry the item with bare my hands. So if you see me carrying an onion in my hand, please I’m no weirdo. I’m just trying to save my world!! I’m aware of the law of chance and I’m trying to use it to our advantage. If only everyone would too!

Waste not want not seems to have passed through this era without many people noticing it. Let’s think about it and save our world together.

Simplicity Verses Complexity--Which Is Better



I pity modern man. He is either being barraged by complex verses from religious books or reading some gloomy articles about this dying planet. He has no universal reprieve from an uncertain future, right!

Forgive me, for I will proceed to reflect on the life and times of the first man, according to Christianity. That is Adam for those not in the know. This is one gentleman who had it so simple. There was no Bible; or Koran to read for that matter. He knew what he needed to know and was quite content for a while.

I admired his life. It was so simple. Then came sin and the need to develop volumes and volumes of descriptions and examples of what he should do and not do. And they didn’t come easy and simplified for our reading and understanding!

This led me to ask myself this. What if man really found out who our Creator really is and accomplished what that creator desires of him? We would then have our maker and his team of leaders and guides on one part and we on the other; living simple lives with no one having to breathe down our faces on what we ought to do or not do.

I say this because some of the books and articles bordering on our maker’s wishes, desires and our destiny are pretty much complex. Personally, I get a headache reading through most of that material. That’s part of the reason why my views on this blog are very simplistic. If we knew our creator and his desires very well, then there should be no need to constantly interpret verses from the “Holly books for the masses. It really ought to be straightforward. What is wrong and what is right ought to be pretty clear-cut.

And if anyone in the congregation needed further convincing or explanation, then the holy books and teachers would come in handy. That person would find great material showing numerous examples and explanations why wrong is wrong and right is right. And of course who is the “big boss” and who is his nemesis. It should be that simple. After all man has been trying to simplify his life of late!

What creates conflict?


Is it possible to have a reality show that puts two people in a house with the aim of seeing how fast or soon conflict arises and how it is resolved? We could have one test consisting of two men, or one with a man and a woman. What about if it was a mix of the old and young?

We could even make it more complex by adding more individuals from different religions or belief systems etc. Then once the causes are confirmed, would it be possible to rid ourselves of those causes once and for all?

I say this because conflict has some known causes and if we are the superior being on earth, why can’t we resolve or reduce them to very low and manageable levels!

Let’s admit it! Conflict is not only human and I’m pretty sure we can identify a few benefits of conflict. But why can’t we reduce it to such low levels that really cut us out as the most superior beings on earth? Or why can’t we device ways of getting the benefits without the conflict?

Well, now that I’ve mentioned it, I know I’m not the only one thinking about this. It’s one way of outsmarting ourselves, you know!

Unnecessary strife


CNN just moved me this morning with a feature on the billion dollar drug business in Columbia and Mexico and how it’s leading to tear-jerking street deaths in urban Mexico on a daily basis.

It’s a sad folly indeed as innocent young lives are lost daily while someone snorts the white powder in some streets in the US and Europe. It makes little sense to be lured by money but never live to enjoy it. It’s akin to trying to catch fire with your hands!

I wish some kind of process map, showing outcomes when one follows certain life paths, can be seen before one follows that very path. Call it forward play or something! It will indeed save us a great deal of grief!

If there is a Supreme Being out there, please come to the plight of these lost souls.
