its terrible when we dont keep our word, terrible and pitiful. and in some ways its inevitable i guess... but not always. surely there are times when its inexcusable that people dont keep their word. when it costs people their lives, like the global food crisis, then we cannot turn a blind eye to unkept promises.

the UN has done so much, and so little. thankfully this is not about critiquing them (a-level history is over!) but about finding new solutions. people are dying from the lack of our most basic need- food and water. there's a petition thats being sent to the UN to do something about it. im somewhat skeptical about how much such organisations like ONE and Avaaz are doing, and yet i know that from where i am right now, not much else can be done about that particular situation... still, there's something for me here, now; something has to be done.

the news these days makes me feel like its the middle of the end. like when gandalf says that the battle for helms deep is won, the war for middle-earth has begun. yes, everything goes back to LOTR =)

is silence an easy tune
or does the wind
carry silence
to your doorstep?


- its time to leave-
