So I'm read an article about the issue with the radiation plant in Fukishima Japan. Since I don't understand much about radiation, besides the fact that it's bad for people's health and can be hazardous and dangerous, I started to read the comments.
A lot of the comments are pretty upset at the fact that much isn't being done and that they aren't being as truthful to the world about the situation and the level of risk it could have, not just to the people in Japan, but to everyone around the world.I can understand how they don't want to cause panic, but seriously, does pretending the problem doesn't exist help? At least if people knew they could take some kind of action, or the people living near the area could move or something.
Someone mentioned how such a problem is not fixable, that it will only continue to get worse. For once, looking at it realistically, I can't argue against this. They're speaking about how the radiation can leak into the Pacific Ocean. They would kill the fish and possibly limit the amount of fish humans can eat, or, if people do eat it, cause issues to one's health due to the fish having been exposed to the radiation!
Fish as omega-3 in it, which is something that's said to be needed for our health. Not just that, but I also read that bees are becoming extinct and how they can have a huge impact on us, the humans.
And now it comes to me that as humans, we are quite selfish. That's not to say all, but most. The effect of the selfishness to nature won't be felt until we're left with not so much food, in which fighting for survival might kick in.
This actually reminds me of a story I'm writing. It's about a group of 3 male friends who befriend two female traveling companions to the capital city of their land. The boys are originally from the lowest of the low part of their community that's called the "Slums", their home was destroyed by some soldiers from capital who had order to exterminate them because the people living there were sick and hey didn't want it getting out and into the rest of the land. The boys are traveling to he capital to take it down. Anyways, the story makes a huge change when the major city is hit and destroyed by a group of people called the Rebellion. The illness was created by this city in order to profit and make money from the people. Anyways, to the point, when that major city fell it caused problems for the other neighboring city where the rich flock and go about their lives.
The people in the cities didn't care much (some, but not all.A majority of them didn't) as they felt that the officials and their government would continued to protect and save them. Mainly, one of the boys from the group of boys from the Slums actually wanted to expose how crooked the city is to the people by helping to create that Rebellion group. On the outside of the city, the people aren't let in unless they can pay the price (which they can't due to the low paying jobs). When they were hit by this issue, a lot of them moved to other parts of the land, while some didn't have the means to, so they just fought for their survival.
Anyways, although it's a story, it will eventually have an effect on us, even if we continue to ignore it. It's like ignoring that you're ill or that there's a problem, but you might keep saying "I'll be fine" even though you're body is suffering.
Of course at times like this, I definitely feel like one of those people and I often think about what I can do. I realize that I can do only so much. It's more of what we can do as a people. And one thing I know for sure that I can do, is to speak. I feel that if my views on something are strong enough, I can debate on a situation until the end of the earth lol My younger sister says I can be a lawyer, but I don't want something like that.I guess unless people having living proof right before their eyes, it won't mean a lick of anything to them.
In this world, I often wonder "What can I do? Is what I'm doing enough?" and I seriously keep falling back into what I try to move away from. And that's the fact that the world on doesn't just sit on one person's shoulder.
I think about what I'm writing and I wonder what's in it that is different from what anyone has been saying. It's like a constant repetition that some people are bored with and skip past in order to see what's new with celebrities. Because it doesn't effect them. But let there be a disaster that does effect them and suddenly things become real. I don't wish this on anyone. But in life, I wonder if those kinds of things are necessary.
I once read a comment online in which a person was giving their answer as to why people have wars. This person commented (I'll say it in my own words) that it helps rid the world of people who want to fight. And honestly, I've never thought of it that way. Let's not look at this a good or bad, but see it as what he says. I believe in people being reborn into another life. Looking at that I do believe they go through a review, that they come back in order to try something new. But what's interesting is that I also read that they WANTED to experience that life. That it's a life they chose. When I read these account (subjects in hypnosis and remembering their lives in between), they are very objective, not that they don't feel anything (they do), but they view it in a way in which they see the errors, they see what they could've done better, in for the most part, they are often the one's who judge themselves.
If I were to look at life in that way, I would say that everything has a reason, the things we call good or bad. But that doesn't mean we should just let everything be either! In life, we have to have a mind, we have to have sense. This comes through errors and mistake. However, the problem arises when the errors are done purposely. By this I mean that it's intentional, that it's known that such a problem could happen, but it's done anyways.
For the most part .___. I seriously feel like I just observe without doing much. Just going through life pondering, wondering, and not just going off and taking actions. Is this what my life is about at this moment? Something like this irritates me lol Possibly it's because I don't quite have the resources I need at the moment. I seriously just sit and stare out a window sometimes and just look at the people living. I don't think much of it, I just watch. Lol does this sound depressing? Well, I don't feel depressed, just kind of blank. Urgh..my birth chart mentioned how I'd have this outlook of life during my whole life lol I know that I view life the way I want, but I also understand that I feel the way I do for a reason.
Maybe it's nothing wrong at all. Perhaps during those moments I feel nothing because I'm being still on the inside. Without judgement or thought.But what does that help with? Understanding? Knowledge? I love life, I seriously do. But it's moments like these where I question my nature lol I guess, it keeps me in line. If I were always happy and optimistic that could be a bit dangerous too. Mainly because it would be like living in a dream world and not seeing things for what they truly are.
When I think the way I do know, it's the harsher more honest part of me. It's the part that'll make me question my views to the deepest root. It's that serious part *___* I don't like being serious lol But I'm quite serious I think, but I'm also happy and bouncy too lol They seem like polar opposites. How do incorporate both? lol
Well, all I have to say is that it seems there's a lot of people with concerns about a lot of things. The thing is, is that they can be covered up as much as a person feels is needed, but eventually it'll surface. People will continue to become less trusting of this system to the point that they'll probably even tear down walls to get rid of it.
It's people's lives being played around with. Some people actually want to live. And when that's toyed with, they may do what they have to do to survive. When self-control is tossed out the window, and the will to live comes to the fore-front, that's when the issues start to brew.
A lot of people want an honest leader. But I'm sure that some leaders feel that the best thing to do is shield them from the truth, but let's be honest, such a thing will not stop them from eventually seeing. Children learn this as they get older, and the same holds true for their system, this sheltering of the eyes.
Isn't it in our nature to want to "know"?
Well! That's all for me. :3
