sheer bulk

come to think of it, it is actually genuinely daunting a task to seek out each and every perspective in the world. i mean, genocide and wars and discrimination and starvation poverty inequity and all that jazz would be so much more difficult to stomach.

and staying here in this bauble with various bubbles of laughter and tears, i can hardly imagine looking out for so many people at once.

there wasn't a discussion about the witness website this week in tutorial. that is a waste, i would have loved to know which videos my classmates chose to view, and when, and why, and what effects the videos had on them.

i remember being disappointed when the video on child prostitution did not have tragic music, slow motion, and extreme close ups of the grieving mother who was also half-blind, and a veteran beggar. and then the horror that i would actually judge the sorrow value by production values. after all, if one has no money to clothe or feed oneself, one can hardly be expected to have boom mics and fcp under the rag which is also blanket.

a very sophisticated skill we have picked up from industrialisation and technological innovation is nonchalance. don't care the children in africa/mexico/cambodia/india, don't care the women in middle east/china, don't care the animals, don't care the trees. too many things to think about no space in heart for more love.

like that how to deserve salvation. how how how how how
