it's time we 'use,' 'reuse' and not 'misuse'

This post is written specially for my anonymous friend for the comment on my previous post. I see things in a new point of view now.

There is a big difference between 'use' and 'misuse.'

When a woodcutter cuts trees to make a living, he is 'using' the resources. When the woodcutter's wood is used by a businessman to manufacture sheet of paper, it is again 'using' resources. When the same sheet of paper is used by a lover to write a letter to his beloved, it is once again 'using' resources.

But if the businessman does not recycle used paper and wants fresh wood (just because it is available) to make new sheets of paper then it is 'misuse.' Again if the lover uses a fresh sheet of paper and not recycled sheet of paper for his love letter (just because new sheets are available) then it is 'misuse.'

'Use' and 'misuse' all depend on our point of view. What is 'use' for one could well be 'misuse' for the other. Therefore, the best thing to do is 'reuse.'

We should introduce the concept of 'reuse' into our lives. Use every object to its maximum capacity and then 'recycle.'

So, it's time we 'reuse' and 'recycle.'

it's not too late yet

Like it is said, Planet Earth has enough for our needs but not for our greed.

Dig up tunnels to Earth's core, discharge huge volumes of poisonous gases into the atmosphere, cut down the last tree stand tall or even dry up the last drop of water - yet our greed wont die.

We have exploited the resources of this planet in all possible ways. We have successfully broken every law of nature and distorted the face of the planet. There is nothing green on the ground and no blue sky, no clear water and no white snow.

All we are left with is barren land, polluted air, dried up rivers and bare mountains.

According to a report, humans are left with just eight years' time to save this planet. If no measures are taken now then there will be nothing left.

So, let us all join hands to save this planet - to save our home. Together we can, in our own small ways, make a difference.

Remember, we have eight years with us. Let us all realise the seriousness of this issue and spread awareness. Let's all keep a foot forward, let's all work at it.

It's not too late yet.

it's easy to talk!

Just yesterday I was humming this 'break out,' 'be different' tune and look what I do. Blogging for me was always a waste of time and I never thought I would have a blog of my own. And today I have a blog, which takes away all my time.

I am sad to say I have joined the bandwagon.

But now that I have already jumped into water, I prefer to swim than sink. Let me see where all this will take me.

it's time you break out!

Have we ever wondered where we are heading to? We are just running ahead...blindly. Has anyone of us thought of what we really want to do? Has anyone thought want we really want? Has anyone of us thought what we really really love?

NO.

Because we have no time to think. The world is running and so are we. We just want to be there... where? We don't know. He is running, she is running and so I shall run too. We are all too busy doing what the other is doing.

My cousin is into Information Technology, my neighbour is into Information Technology so I too shall be there. My friend smokes so I shall smoke too. My dog barks so I shall bark too!!

It's high time we give up this herd mentality. It's time we take courage and do what we want to do. Let's stop following. If not lead then atleast be bold enough to lead life the way you want.

It's time you break out!
