Weather! yes!… aaahhhh 🙂 . This is one of the most searched keywords on google. (not including Google, Amazon, porn…)

Transylvania Winter

Transylvania Summer

If you really think about it, makes sense to be constantly searching for weather related topics.
It affects us all. No one is “safe”.
It’s an everyday conversation topic in USA. It bring us the Olympic games as well. Winter vs summer Olympics. It affects the way we dress when we leave home; Or even to stay at home. In some places we will call it fashion. But sometimes it’s just practical to wear less…or more layers. 😉

It affects our mind and how do we feel about ourselves. If you don’t believe me, why do you think people in more tropical weathers are more relaxed that people in colder weathers? Equally important, I have read that the suicide rate in northern countries is higher than in tropical countries.
And something that is very trendy now, and also very lucrative this days: global warming!!

Yes, if one day weather is particularly colder (or hotter) than normal (compare to last year same period), well… you know the cause, GLOBAL WARMING! Accompanied by: “THE END OF THE WORLD IS NEAR”.
Aha!! but let me tell you something. Regardless of if human being is the big responsible of global warming, there will be no “end of the world” (not soon I have heard) because of the famous (infamous) global warming. It would only be the end of the human race (at least the majority I guess) and other species. Because the world will be here spinning around the sun for much longer, with or with out us. 😀 . Interesting article HERE.

Now in more serious notes. When you surf the internet, what do you look for? I saw one of the trendy topics is fashion (other than porn… again). And that makes me want to think… What’s in our heads? Are we happy just reading/seeing “empty” content in the “world wide web”?? Don’t get me wrong, I also love the Kardashians (my favorite as a matter of fact it’s Kloe 😀 ).

Could be the time to think about what do you want to leave in this world for the next generations to come when you are no longer here? Do you want your legacy to be just a world of non sense conflicts? (race, religion,…). A big lack of tolerance and respect? A forgotten sense of duty to our nature and all living things? Well, you name it. The list it’s quite large. Everyone knows how powerful it’s internet as a tool. We just need to focus our energies in a more positive and constructive way. Internet it’s a fun “place” to be, but like “Uncle Ben” said: “with great powers comes great responsibilities”.
I try to do my part everyday.
Start with doing yours, and we will see a better place everyday.

Saying that, if you want to see and listen a pretty cool, positive and full of energy speech, look for Mr. Lee Hsien Loong (Singapore Prime Minister) 2016 National Day Rally on the WWW. Look for the English part. But if you understand Malay and Mandarin you can see it all!! 🙂 . Pay attention, learn, and make your own conclusions.
