The Struggling Blogger

While the next posts in my blog are still in draft form, I found this in my old files and thought that I would post it here. Some of these maybe already be outdated or already a common knowledge, but I didn’t edit any nor remove any and just post them here the way I got them. From where I got them, I can’t even remember.

Useless but fun Trivia

Basically we want to belong in a community, even the most introvert amongst us would like to have someone whom we can talk to. That’s why we join clubs, communities, forums, classes and what-have-you’s. Because no man is an island. We definitely need companies, admit it or not, we need others too. Yes, even the most self-reliant person, needs someone beside him.

Last Sunday, while cleaning and arranging things in our house I turn my radio on. Since we just moved in to a new house and things were (or still are) a mess, the TV external antenna isn’t set up yet. The only items that were put in place were, the bed, dresses, tables, and this computer so I can blog and surf the net (lol). So I have to rely on my old radio for a musical background while working.

Thinking of a new topic to post on my blog, I remembered the e-mail I received sometime last week. The e-mail delivers a message of warning and horror, so to speak, as it tells of an earthquake of big magnitude to happen in the Philippines soon.

I was surprised because, somebody is taking the prediction seriously. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the fact that they are preparing for such an event, but to instil fear in the minds of children is a different. My daughter told me that one of their classmates even cried in fear during the exercise.

We see a mother giving her son a dozen donuts in a box, and told him to share it with his playmates. The boy then counted all his friends who are busy looking for a place to hide as they were playing hide-and-seek with the boy being the it. As they show his playmates one by one, hearing the boy’s voice on the background… coincidentally, there were twelve of them, including the boy!

Quickly he called all his playmates from hiding and announced that he has donuts to share. When they approached him, the camera showed all eleven donuts gone and just one remaining which was divided into 12 pieces. It seems the boy have consumed all eleven pieces and have left just one piece to share with his friends. Cute… or is it? I say it is an obvious display of greed and selfishness.
