Something New?

I'm not in the mood to post anything here but then seeing news on TV about people from other countries who cannot do anything about their garbage. My God it's over the top already. I mean the road is  filled with garbage and there's nobody trying to help get rid of it. Full of plastic bags with waste. They said they cannot get rid of "plastic." They can't burn them either. Why? It will create pollution that's why. lol. My goodness those garbage is beside the river and of course it will affect the water that you drink and the water you use to bathe. Oh my God! Then the reporter asked the woman who is selling mangoes beside that pile of garbage the size of the "hill" already. She has a small stall there right beside the pile or hill of garbage. For what is the reason why she was there selling mangoes beside pile of garbage is something unsanitary right? Anybody who bought mangoes from her will eventually get sick. I hope not. Patibayan na lang siguro ng resistencia.

Then on the other hand there is that positive news of the story wherein there are East Indian women in uniform with their hands covered with gloves and they have a metal bin with wheels and they go from house to house looking and asking from the house owners to give their waste in the form of food waste. No paper or plastic just left over food or peelings from root crops and fruits. This kind of waste were then deliver to the community plant and then use as GAS. The waste you throw for compost can be processed as GAS. It's true. Yes you can do that now. Parang movie ni Michael J Fox na "Back To The Future." But then in that movie the scientist had the food waste inside the car's gas tank to start its engine. Innovative eh? Resourceful too.




Then last night on TV also a documentary news about a white guy buying and selling coffee beans. The beans came from impoverished area somewhere in __________that country. Not sure if what they are saying is that country just to give a bad light on people who are selling coffee in a place where there is no means of water distribution, the land area is so dry and you will see how unsanitary everything in that place would you buy coffee beans from them? It's scary! It is frightening to drink coffee when you see something like this. Why on earth that we the people are buying coffee and paying for it and those people selling coffee are still impoverished up to now. How come? Coffee is very costly! Chocolates are expensive!!!!!! They should have been RICH right? Those people having coffee plantation where the berries came from should have been millionaires and billionaires! Oh my too much exclamation there and having to watch such anomaly makes me feel not to trust the source of news.

Remember the movie of Charlie "Willy Wonka and Chocolate Factory?" The story of a poor boy who had the chance to meet Willy Wonka and how his honesty is paid in the end? Good movie for children. The second movie version with Johnny Depp in it showed Charlie's father collecting "lead cover" for the toothpaste (?) that alone just that simple stealing a part of any product from the factory can stop or shut down one big company, one corporation and what happened to the rest of the employees? Nadadamay sa kawalanghiyaan ng isang tao!

Know what all these kind of incredible unbelievable stories will have space in my next novelette with a title DEAR VERONICA. It's not the Bible character Veronica who happened to meet Jesus Christ on the way to the calvary. She is not the Veronica who is a saint and who had the shroud of Jesus Christ. It will be a different Veronica, a character whom you will have to relate to. But I have to finish the new version of my "THE SPIRIT OF VERONA" first. Are you reading it?
