If you think about it, did people decades ago have something that they cannot leave at home. I mean the one thing that almost all people needed. None?
Today, things are part of our lives. They became a need or a necessity in a way.
The first thing that became like this was the wallet or anything that we put our money on. We never leave at home without it in our pockets or bags. Why? I don't know, but one things for sure it was never like this before.
Then cellphones came, before it was just for people in the higher level of community, and most of the business oriented people. But now, cellphones are overly used and a necessity for us. We wouldn't like it to be left anywhere, we want it to be always with us. Why do we act like that? Didn't people live in the past without cellphones? What's the difference from the past and the present? If we don't have it, are we going to die? I don't think so, but still we act like we really really need it. But of course it is a great help to us, nonetheless, we won't die if we don't have it by our sides, right? Its just funny how we see things now from before. Now we see how technology can produce change and affect our world in general.
Wait, not yet done. My last two things are not that yet very famous for this category, but I think some people already see these things as a need too. I'm talking about digicams and ipods/mp3s. Digicams, to some and ipods/mp3s to many. Digicams are very popular to mostly the girls, and the vain people, obviously. I just happen to noticed it, because pictures, videos, etc. are never rare nowadays. It is very easy in our time to find a picture or a video of a certain person, particularly in the internet. Before digicams became famous, pictures, videos, and such were never that many. So let's go to ipods/mp3s, you cannot go around the public and not see a minimum of 10 persons that have earphones or headphones on. Suddenly, ipods/mp3s shocked us and hypnotized us to use it everyday.
Some things on earth can really get into a persons system, and pursue it to think it is that needed on his/her everyday life. It may be bad in way and can be good too.
It is so ironic how girls or women tend to hold their emotions, before she becomes committed to a guy. Don't you think so too?
They won't show any hint of liking the guy, and just holding back their emotions, to the point that they can't hold it already, then that's the time the guy and the girl would have a relationship. Girls are so good at it, even the sweetest thing the guy would do as long as she is certain that she is not still ready, she wouldn't give a clue that she really likes the guy. Well I'm not saying all girls are like this, but most of the time some are like this.
Then when she finally accepts the guy, she now becomes the one who is so into the guy unlike before the relationship, the guy is the one really crazy about her. She is the one always texting, or checking if her guy is doing well, she always wants him by her side, etc. All of that, were the obligations of the guy before, but now, the girl does it. Ironic isn't it?
I guess the quote, "a relationship should be give-and-take", wait I think that's not the quote but that's what it means, so be it. So i guess that one is true, right?
First, its the guy's obligation, then into the relationship its the girl's.
Examples of this are around the public, and some of my personal experiences. You can easily see couples in public, notice them, the girl is the sweeter one now or the one who always cuddles. Unlike before and the early parts of the relationship, the guy is the sweeter one.
But don't take this seriously, maybe not all girls are like that, well some are just too flirtatious. And some are frank about what they feel towards you.
Girls are girls, you can never predict them. haha.
Definitely not for me, I never liked crocs and I mean NEVER. Even though everyone says it is very comfortable and very convenient. C'mon! look at it, really looks bad. When I see people wearing that, I laugh (well, not obviously laugh, just to myself, haha) and say at the back of my head "what a ridiculous footwear". Well no offense to crocs' fans and wearers, but I really think crocs suck bigtime, in terms of how it look to be clear. Also one thing that's pretty bad about it, is it's price, it's expensive right? Who would want to pay such a high price on something that looks very ridiculous?
To help my argument about how bad Crocs look, here are some pictures:
well heres one showing someone wearing it:
Enough said about crocs, lets go to flipflops. Let me throw some questions before explaining why I like it better than crocs.
Who doesn't like flipflops? Isn't it comfortable too? Do you think it looks more acceptable for all ages to wear it? And do you think it looks better?
Of course! Even the simplest flipflop can look cool better than any crocs product. By that I mean with their design and all. Flipflops are also comfortable, and very convenient too right?
And lets see it in different perspectives, not only how convenient and comfortable the two products are. When traveling, what is better to bring, crocs or flipflops? Flipflops I guess, because it is very light (lighter than crocs) and consumes less space on your bag. Crocs are very big and bulky even though its light too.
Flexibility of the two products, what I meant is how can you wear it and when can you wear it? Basically their type of footwear is similar but for me you cannot always wear crocs. Unlike flipflops, you can wear it most of the time without worrying how it would look on you.
Now, lets get to the danger of crocs bring, it had been widely spread through the internet that crocs inflicted injuries to kids and some adults. In the articles I had read, the foot wear crocs is the main reason why accidents happen. If you have not heard of this, the accident is when people particularly kids have their feet caught on the escalator's teeth and caused injuries. Due to the public appeal of how would this problem be solved, many experts said that parents should not leave their kids unattended on escalators when wearing such footwear. In some parts of the US they already posted posters that warn wearers of crocs to be careful when using the escalators.
So not only it looks bad, but if not careful on wearing this footwear, it can also inflict injuries to you. Unlike flipflops, that is very safe, and used since a long long time ago.
Ok ok, maybe I'm too harsh on crocs, so yeah, crocs maybe worn anywhere too and can be a good footwear but for me, it would never work. So Crocs or Flipflops, what do you like better?
As I have said, to earn money through blogging or your site you should have a great traffic. Which means many visitors.
So how would you do that?
After reading many blogs and articles about this topic, I've come up with two things to help you create traffic.
First is your site's content, you should capture people's interests and it should benefit many viewers of your site. Why do such thing? Why not, right? If you are the viewer would you want a boring entry? Nobody wants to read a boring blog or a non-sense one. To be helped by your viewers for your traffic you should help them to be entertained, so when they liked your blog 8 out of 10 chances they would refer your site to their friends. Then more would visit your site and again would refer it to different people. You shouldn't underestimate the power of gossip and people referrals.
The other one is by advertising your site to friends, other bloggers, and people. There are a lot of things you can do to advertise your blog, I'll enumerate some. One thing is by saying it to your friends, let them visit it. It is the most basic thing that you can do, but you can never rely on just that. Your site's traffic won't increase rapidly by just doing that. Another way is by creating links from your different sites, profiles, etc. in the internet. Its a great way for the site to be easily linked to the public. You can also exchange links with fellow bloggers, it would help your blog to be noticed by other bloggers and readers. One last thing is advertising by means of different organizations, there are free ones and the ones requires fees. Here are some entities that can help your blog; google's adsense, blogrush, etc...
So there you go, some tips on how to create traffic for your site or blog. Hope it helps.
Many says it is a very efficient way of making money. You can be anywhere in the world, you can be on your home clothes, you don't need to be well groomed to generate income.
Think that's cool? for me yeah.. For some its just not that exciting for a job, but who cares? you're earning money, and he isn't. right?
I'm not saying depend on it, I'm just pointing out the fact that you can earn extra income without breaking a sweat.
One way to do that is by blogging, yeah it takes time to have your site a great traffic, or in other words visitors. But who wouldn't want to share what they think? this is a very good way to express what you feel, show your emotions, promote your creativity and by doing so, maybe many would find your works great and very entertaining. By that many would visit your site and would generate more visitors.
So let's say your site's traffic is great, many visits it, what would it benefit you? One is appreciation for your works, that would be great right? someone who appreciates your works and thoughts.
Second, if you participated on online ads, blogads, and other ad sites more visits on your site generate more money through your accounts. How?
There are many types of how they would advertise on your site. One is the payperclick, this means they would request a part of your site where they would put their ads. You are paid to every click it gets, either intentionally or accidentally. And you don't need to do anything, just wait, seat back, and create more blogs. Another is the payperpost, they pay you by requesting you to make a blog about the product or service the advertiser is selling, and you don't need to praise them, just point them out somewhere on your entry, and link there site a couple of times. Every request of an entry is worth a minimum of $5. Not bad right? There are more ways to advertise on your site. The two that I said are the most common I think.
So if you got time, and have many on your mind. Why not blog it all out? who knows? you might earn a lot.
Greed.. good or bad?
Yeah.. Morally speaking greed is bad.. Its a sin to the Church.. and definitely immoral to most of us.. So why do i say its good?.. If majority says its bad?..
Here's the thing, who are the most greedy people on earth?.. umm.. Most of the time the rich people are the most greedy. Why do I think so? If you'd see this in a moral point of view, it aint good. My point is that, they became filthy rich because greediness helped them in a way. Being contented in what you have would stop you from wanting more, right? So if you are contented on being a middle class person, you won't strive to be better or to be richer, I guess. But if you're greedy enough. You'd do anything to get yourself everything. Greed is the one who pushes us to want more.
Greed is good. But you should also know your limits to reach your goal, greed is only unacceptable when we do bad things to accomplish our goals. For example, to some, they kill a person, and to others, they only back stab, etc. These things are the reasons why being greedy is bad, when you can't get a hold of yourself to get what you want.
I believe in this thought, basically because I choose practicality more than morality.. sometimes you need to choose a better way for yourself than a better way for the people around you...
What does rain bring? Why is it such a big part of the nature's cycle? Does it benefit us?
Rain is a part of the nature's cycle indeed. It distributes water to many areas, and makes water available to many things. Rain come from clouds, that get water evaporation from the earth.
So what's to love and to hate when raining?
In a country that doesn't have snow, raining is the only time that the temperature becomes colder. So this means people can wear jackets or sweaters. This is the only time we can show off that kind of clothing. That's why I love it when it rains.
In terms of students, when raining the possibility of canceling or suspending the classes are higher. Definitely students would love that. Who wouldn't? Right?
Raining also bring water to many parts of the country, so when we experience the lack of water in our country. The rain is the only one that could replenish lost water supply.
I hate rain when it generates floods.
When it takes lives, destroy properties, and cut-off electric supply.
It really sucks when rain causes you illnesses, and prevent you on having fun.
So rain can really be a pain in the ass or a blessing. Whether you see it in a positive way or hate it, rain would still occur even past our lifetime.
But one thing I really really want to do or to experience when it is raining, is; to be in the middle of an area where on the other side, it is raining and on the opposite side it is very dry. Wouldn't that be great? I really wish that I could experience such thing.
Everybody wants an easy way in traveling. One major factor that contributes to our benefit when traveling is to have a car.
Cars started way way years from now, it is used in many ways. Transportation, for reputation, some live in it, etc...
There are many types of cars; ranging from sports cars to 4x4's, vans to luxury cars, and jeeps to vintage cars, etc.
Every person has his/her own taste of what kind of car he/she would choose.
But the downfall on having a car is high maintenance cost. Gasoline is not decreasing in price, accidents do occur even with much caution, and we cannot set aside people who steal the car or something in it.
Having a car really makes our everyday life much easy but we are not sure if nothing bad would happen to our car in due time. Nobody can prevent such accidents, so people or entrepreneurs thought of a good idea, why not make cars insured? Car insurances can really help when your car wrecked, lost, etc. They assure every member of their organization that they would pay an amount to repair the damage or to buy another car.
What a very good idea.. right? not only people benefit from it, it also generates money for them and gives jobs to people.
So really, a car doesn't only benefit you, there are many ways that it can benefit others too.
So here we are again.. talking about different religions.. what do you think they have in common?..
In my perspective all religions are the same in a way. They have almost the same backbone, or literally saying, they have almost the same beliefs, rules, etc...
Let's sort their similarities...
If I am right, almost all religions have male gods. Ours, speaking of Catholic or Christians we have God or Jesus that we worship. On Muslims, they have Allah. Buddhists, have Buddha even though they claim they don't have a real god, still the superiors of their religion are majority of males. Jews, they don't praise or believe that Jesus is the son of God but still praise God. I am not giving out all the religions, cause I really don't know the other religions.
A religion's (most) main purpose is to pursue peace and harmony on earth. They try their best to let their followers be good and not do such immoral and foolish acts. Even though every religion has a unique way of preaching its beliefs, all will come to this, to pursue greater good.
Almost all religions need or ask for donations. Some literally ask their followers for it, and some says they don't need to give but they'll happily accept what their followers would give. Either of the two, they still expect to have money out of donations.
No religion accepts killing.
All religions demand their followers to be at their best attire as much as possible when going to the religion's church or temple.
Almost all religions demand their followers to go to their church or temple at least once a week.
There is no religion that doesn't have a prayer or ritual.
There is no religion that doesn't have images or statues etc. of their so called gods or who they praise for.
As much as religions fight for who is the best or superior or true between them, they have the same goals. So why argue with one another if we are on the same page? For me there is no real or the true and right religion. I believe religions are just a way for us people to find ourselves in a road where we are truly good and happy.
I dont have a prob with religions... but up to some extent... they really create chaos... i know i know... thats an exaggeration already... but still... true... lets look at some facts... we Filipinos fight because of religion... right?... i mean... the Abusayaf... is the spelling right?... oh well... they rebel because they feel we Catholics don't welcome them and they want their own country to live on... and don't be governed by Catholics... so war came into place...
Not only here in the Philippines... but in the other countries as well... like in the middle-east... they also fight because of their different religions... Muslims, Christians, Jews, Hindu, Buddhists... they have their own beliefs... and they all think they are the superior "religion".. but not all people in these religions are like that... I'm just saying that there are people like this... thats why war and chaos occur...
lets go back to history... Catholics and Muslims fought many wars together... about millions of casualties occurred... but to what reason?... to prove what religion is better?... is that acceptable?... kill somebody to say your religion is better?... correct me if I'm wrong... from what i know... all these different religions does not allow their followers to kill somebody... and this is a sin for them... but still they continue their foolish acts... and execute others for the religion's fame to increase...
the learnings, academics, moral lessons, informations... etc...
just kidding! haha... fuc* that.. i know we need it.. but i dont need to tell you that.. hehe
heres the thing...
you miss the happiness and excitement students have when classes are cancelled.
you miss the relief that students feel when they pass a test that they're sure that they'll fail.
you won't experience the happiness the students feel when their teacher go crazy.
you miss the excitement of having to wake up early just to hear the news that classes would be cancelled.
you don't enjoy weekends like students do.
vacations like summer and christmas don't matter to you unlike students who cherish it.
you miss the greatest lunch meals of your life, i supposed you eat by yourself at this times.
you don't love the times between 3-6pm unlike students cause this time dismissal are on going.
cheating is never exciting to you.
you miss the camaraderie that is going on when there's an assignment to be passed on this day.
you miss the fun in making fun of your classmates and your teachers.
you miss and don't experience the fun of prom, dances, the fair... etc.
you miss the excitement of asking for money and making it enough for the week.
you miss half of the people that you'd meet on earth all your life.
the news of having a typhoon the next morning won't excite you.
halfdays don't matter to you unlike to students they pray for it to happen.
there you go... i think thats not all but im already tired to think.. haha.. if you have more... feel free to add... just put it in your reply/comment... thanks for reading it.. ciao!
