Cause and Effect...

I always find it funny when people say 'look how perfect the Earth is to support life' when in fact most species have evolved and adapted to the way the Earth is...If we lived on Mercury, we'd think Mercury was the only special planet that could support life the way we knew it

I feel we are looking at things backwards or upside down. The Earth didn't evolve to suit our needs, we evolved in such ways as to utilize Earths resources.

And the most important bit about this is that this adaptation to the Earth's resources have happened over billions of years. We didn't get to where we are in a couple of lifetimes. And I think its important to remember this because we are changing things on Earth - we are changing its nature.. Whether it's the atmosphere or the land or the water, everything is naturally changing and also changing because of us (humans). Change in itself is not a problem but the changes need to be slow so that we can adapt. Drastic changes only mean that we will have to cope better and have to work harder and faster to adjust to the world around us.

Whatever change we create should take effect slowly so that we (and other species on Earth) can adapt to the same.

Mansi totally nailed a truth about change.

She said -

And that’s the thing about change. You move on and expect others to stand where they are.

It's so true, that often we find so much disappointment, when we go back and 'things aren't the same' even though we know that everything has moved forward, a long time ago.

Expecting nothing (other than ourselves) to change is just silly.

Why is change so tough?...

Ever realized how badly you need to change something about yourself but find yourself totally incapable of doing the same?

hey baby jee lene de is pal ko - kal ki sochenge kal ko....

Well don't know how much I follow the whole 'Live for today - worry about tomorrow, tomorrow'.

When I was younger everyone thought I was too serious. Of course I never thought the same. I thought that everyone else was too carefree.

Over the years I don't think I have lost my seriousness though it does seem that way. I think it's the whole 'shit happens, I'll deal with it cause I have to' funda. It's not a mantra for my life obviously because if you can prevent mess ups and uncomfortable situations, then you must. But I have realised that there are things beyond my control.

The funny thing though is that I am not angry at the world anymore. When I was younger, I use to get very upset about issues like the environment, population, unemployment, etc. Now I don't really bother. I don't like this 'who cares' attitude much but I do find myself more at peace. I know in the long run, we are ruining our world because of this 'It's not my problem' attitude but I am just too content at the moment....
