The problem with human compassion

" On MARCH 13, 2002, a fire broke out in the engine room of an oil tanker about 800 miles south of Hawaii. The fire moved so fast that the Taiwanese crew did not have time to radio for help. Eleven survivors and the captain’s dog, a terrier named Hokget, retreated to the tanker’s forward quarters with supplies of food and water.

The Insiko 1907 was supposed to be an Indonesian ship, but its owner had not registered it. In terms of international law, the Insiko was stateless, a 260-foot microscopic speck on the largest ocean on Earth.

Now it was adrift. Drawn by wind and currents, the Insiko got within 220 miles of Hawaii. It was spotted by a cruise ship, which rescued the crew. But as the cruise ship pulled away, a few passengers heard the sound of barking.

The captain’s dog had been left behind on the tanker. The Society alerted fishing boats about the lost tanker and soon media reports began appearing about Hokget".

Eight years before Hokget saga began, the same world that showed extraordinary compassion for a dog sat on its hands as hundreds of thousands of human beings were killed in the Rwandan genocide.

Thousands of dollars was spent for the rescue this dog. With each passing day, the calls from around the world intensified asking: Had Hokget been found?

Well, this subject shows us the how human compassion is so visceral with a single lost animal and so abstract with genocide!

I think that the media helps to increase this problem showing subjects that touch the human heart. Some research shows that human compassion is more touched by small and isolated cases than the big catastrophes.

People prefer help somebody who is known by media and has become famous. In my humble opinion, the media is guilty for bringing unknown people so close to the population.

Friendship

Friendship... a union of spirits, a marriage of hearts.

HODJA STORIES - IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY DIFERENCE

A group of religious men got into an argument about a question while they were together. Half of them said that it is proper walking on the right side when they are carrying a coffin that is going to the cemetery. The other half said that it is proper walking on the left side.

They couldn't agree and they were divided, so they decided to consult the Hodja, who was the leader of the group.

After a minute thinking, Hodja said: " It doesn't matter if you are walking on the left side or the right side. What matters is if you are inside or outside!"

Actually, Hodja said that we cannot spend our time with little things that aren't so important.

Dreams of God

The story of Joseph, is very similar to ours, he came from a complicated family, Jacob, his father had two wives, two concubines. Lia and Rachel, Bilhah and Zilpah had twelve children.Rachel, his mother died after his birth, Jacob loved more Joseph than the others, explicitly.
Joseph lived in a family with three stepmothers, eleven brothers and only one his mother's brother, but despite all that, he was chosen by God to be a success (Gen 37).

THE DIFFERENCE IS THAT JOSE DREAMED DREAMS OF GOD.
We need to have individual dreams and as a community, you need to have dreams in each area of your life. If you do not have dream do not go anywhere. (Ps 37:4).

DREAMS ARE THE SEEDS OF OUR ACHIEVEMENTS.
Every great project starts with a small seed.
God has planted the seeds in us, we aren't seeing it now, but they have been planted, and we need to appreciate and value the small beginnings.

THE GREATNESS OF A MAN IS NOT MEASURED FOR WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT HIM, BUT BY WHAT DREAMS ARE IN YOUR HEART.

The Getaway

Then they stopped in the middle of the floor, turned around, reached inside their jackets, and pulled guns on us. Automatic pistols, I think they were. “You sit where you are and don’t move”.

When I saw this scene, I got nervous and I thought that was my end. In my mind, there was only thought: "Why did I enter this place?" My body was shaking and my desire at that moment was disappear from their eyes.

Suddenly, another car pulled up outside and quickly the doors opened and two policeman entered, changing that scene. They were looking for a restroom. While they were asking, the couple of "feed merchants" hid their guns and they said:

" Good bye friends! Glad to let you go!"

And all the guys said: “ Bye Bye”

Love...

When love touches the heart brings a greater sense that the passion.
Just one look, one touch and nothing else to do just as happy as you make me.

God has united our lives once and each day is the first again, as in the first glance nothing will ever change.

When love touches the heart
Time stops and the life becomes a song and there's nothing better than to love you ... I will never lose you, was God who gave me you

It's like being able to dream and never wake up.

I love so much this song.

Love!!!

The word love (Latin Love) lends itself to multiple meanings in English. It can mean affection, compassion, mercy, or even inclination, attraction, appetite, passion, and want, satisfaction, achievement, desire, libido, etc.. The most popular concept of love involves, in general, the formation of an emotional bond with someone, or some object that is able to accept this behavior and food loving the psychological and sensory stimulation necessary for their maintenance and motivation.

Love is any of a number of emotions related to a sense of strong affection and attachment. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure ("I loved that meal") to intense interpersonal attraction ("I love my husband" or "I love my friend from the bottom of my heart") . This diversity of uses and meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.


Have you ever had all these feelings? Put ones heart out!

Love or Passion...

Love is the most special feeling that someone may have


True love is more precious than riches and when you find someone you really love, you feel the happiest person in the world.

Love is the true meaning of life.

People say that the love is only beautiful, when we find someone who will become the best we can be.
I think it is true. True love does not anything in return, he just loves.It is common to confuse passion with love, although they are very different feelings. Each one has its beauty, its strength and intensity. It has been said that passion is a healthy state of imbecility, a wonderful state of temporary insanity and stupidity. So, one important thing between passion and love is the time. Time in the passion is limited, but in the love is infinite.

The Precious Stones of Axolotyl

Blue grama grass is a warm season tufted perennial grass. It is native to the short and tall grass prairies, and makes up 75% to 90% of the grasses found there. The prairies lie in central North America. Cold artic air currents blow in from the polar regions in the winter. Summers are hot and dry because the prairies lie in the middle of the continent, and don't get moisture from oceans. Blue grama can grow up to 18 inches tall. It grows as a bunch grass, forming open sod mats. As it matures and is grazed on by animals, the bunches grow together and form the thick sod. Blue grama is an important prairie grass because its dense, shallow root mass holds down the soil and keeps it from blowing away like it did during the Dust Bowl Era in the 1930s. Because the root system is shallow it can quickly absorb any rain that might fall.

Blue grama is 6 to 12 (15-30 cm) inches high. It has flat leaves that come to a point at the end. The leaves can grow from 1 to 10 inches (2.5-25 cm) long and 1/8 inch (3 mm) wide. The flower stems grow 7 to 18 inches (17-46 cm) tall. The flowers look like crescent moons perched on the end of the flower stem. A flower consists of 20 to 90 little spikelets. Blue grama flowers from June to August, depending on what part of the prairies its growin in, and how much moisture it gets.

When plowed under, or otherwise disturbed, it can take blue grama grass as long as 50 years to re-establish itself. On the prairies blue grama begins to grow late in the season, mid-April, when the soil is about 52° F (11° C). Blue grama goes dormant in the winter, and when there is a drought.

Blue grama likes to grow in full sun with well-drained good soil, and can stand drought, heat, cold, and mowing. Although it doesn't like shade, it can grow in open piñon forests. People use it instead of regular grass where there are dry areas, for grazing animals, and to control erosion. Some people use the flowers in dried flower arrangements and the plant is also used in rock gardens.
