Dear 'M',
This is the first blog of 2009. Have been really looking forward to a new year since 2008 wasn't that pleasant of a year. A lot of bad things have occurred for me as well as to everyone in the world. We have seen the world struck hard by the sudden collapse of the world economy. We have seen changes in numerous leadership in various parts of the world. We have seen the suddenly usual spectacle of terrorist attacks. Everything seems to be in tatters. What has happened to planet Earth, a place that we so long has stay put in. This reminds me of the movie I recently watched, "The day the Earth stood still". Although the movie didn't end very well for most of us, it does contain the all so important message that humans are actually the key ingredient to disasters. Although this can be skeptical, looking at all the aftermath of recent events as well as the sudden increase in the number of natural disasters that has struck Earth over the past decades, I can't help but to agree with the movie that humans are actually a "dark lord" to Earth. However, we are the species that has the ability to generate deeper and more sophisticated thoughts than do most organisms in the world. Yet, this is also our threat as that brilliance can actually be made to harm. The evidences are for all the see. What I do hope now is for the part in the movie where it mentioned that we human, when faced with adversity, will come out of our normal hard shell to overcome that obstacle and restore what was the initial peace that has long been yield for in the entire existence of the human race. All in all, I wish everyone a great year ahead and let us for this moment hold our hands together and pray to god, the bad is going to end soon.
