…it’s not very tough as it used to be. But once in a while it gets even tougher.

And now some of the lines perfectly make sense - “you just can’t feel it until you experience it” - true indeed. I know and I understand that “this shall pass too”.

Time has great healing powers. It lets you forget many things and heals the deepest wounds as well. Even though, due to all what I’m going through, the concern is the impact and the permanent changes it would leave. The attributes I would acquire as part of my personality. That is alarming. Whereas some good will become part of me, the bad shall walk along too.

Where it’s making me strong in a way to confront all sorts of situations and survive such conditions, it’s somewhere making me insensitive towards certain things as well. It’s altogether a great learning experience, very agonizing, exhausting and full of trials and turbulences though.

…this shall paas too, but at what cost?

I dont know, but I’m already paying for it…

It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.
(Mark Twain)

Saw it first time at KARA Film Festival last year and now again at home; Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth.

I have never been frightened by the buzzword “Global Warming” before as much as I’m now after watching this. Really moved by the movie (and the song running in the background of end titles “I need to wake up” by Melissa Etheridge). I appreciate Al Gore’s work and effort on this (regardless of the reasons and objectives he might have behind it - as in; political). It really does impress people and that’s what I like about it. I now, really, feel this responsibility to actually do something about this and think seriously to make things happen at my end and be part of something good which effects humanity at the end of the day.

Do watch it!

Here’s what you should do to feel responsible and responsive to what you should:

• Read more about An Inconvenient Truth on IMDB
• Watch An Inconvenient Truth Trailer on Google Videos
• Seriously heed upon and implement ways that can help reduce global warming
• Recommend it to friends and family
