Free Water, From the Sky?

You know what I'm sick of? There is no-where on the (English) Governments websites where ideas can be recommended, so I'm going to publish a few more reserved examples here.
We recently (a few months ago) had quite a bad drought in which all the 'reservoirs where loosing lots of water' according to the media. So here's the idea. The Government distributes (for free) 50 litre containers which can be attached to the bottom of the gutter spout, collecting rainwater. Every fortnight or so a lorry comes around to collect the water which then can be put into the reservoirs. Especially in times of drought.
Now i know this will cost money, but with this Government who's gonna notice another 2% on the tax? (clear irony).
This could stop the hosepipe bans and anyone who doesn't want to be involved can opt out. Thus saving time and annoying everyone. Obviously an idea the Government* will love.

*note: the use of a capital G in Government is more out of contempt and hilarity rather than respect.
Oh and also i decided to publish this after being told that i should recommend what the Government should do to improve.

A Modern Interpretation

One of the duties of the church is to understand politics. Not to take politics on, but to understand the usage of it. For to start using politics will lead to division and malice amongst the members of the church. But to understand the principles and reasons for using politics helps to combat the effects of the government, and under careful guard and development could lead to a better life in the church. As a whole the church would gain a larger place in the minds of individuals, and the congregation would be united in larger decisions made by the church. The works of God would be seen more clearly by the public and the preciousness of them would be understood.

Reduction is Gain

Politicians will lie and they will backstab and they will do whatever it takes to (in England anyway) become Prime Minister. While convincing the public that they have the people’s interests at heart, rather than the massive pension on which each Prime Minister can retire. “Any former Prime Minister is entitled to half his £194,250 salary index-linked against inflation for the rest of his life.” This is a direct quote from
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/finance/ianmcowie/100005545/number-10-defends-gordon-browns-gold-plated-pension/
for those who are interested. Oh and don’t forget the £2 million worth of assets they get as standard. It just shows that any man who is ‘chosen’ (don’t forget we don’t really live in a world of freedom – see 1984 by George Orwell) to ‘run’ the country will probably not make much difference, considering their first aim is ‘to look after number 1’. Any decision a Prime Minister makes probably comes from a higher authority that chooses to be invisible, while still manipulating the country for the gain of power.
So the question is, why does the general public let it continue? Because a large percentage of us are afraid of change. We are scared of the impact of change, which we are responsible for. The government has succeeded in making the general public feel unable to run the country, so any decision we make will be the wrong choice, but for us as individuals it will be the most bearable choice. We have to believe we can do what they do, but better, in order just to overcome their pressurization.

The Climb

From now on my motto is going to be "Achieve the impossible, then the hard things come easily". Why? Because that's how i want to live my life. I want to step out of my comfort zone and do things that most people only dream of. Of course i don't hold any sort of illusion that I'm the best at all things as I'm clearly not. i simply say that if you keep trying at something you will succeed and understanding will come. Thus the harder problems can be tackled easily and you may have already defeated them in seeking an answer to the impossible.
Sometimes it takes knowledge of the topic but if you keep stretching yourself you will achieve more and knowledge will come. But it ALWAYS takes commitment and time.

Help from Above

Boldness in decision making is vital. As the future come ever closer we as individuals but also as humanity will have some tough choices to make. But fear not for we are not alone.
We have a God who loves us. We have a God who will put us on the right paths and who will show us where to go. For we are all special, we are all unique, we are all loved...and we are all needed.

What if?

I often find myself wonder what it would be like if reality (all that we know) stopped existing. Now some people would say that this is impossible. But i tend to believe that all things are possible, just some are really hard. Many people would refuse to accept the non-existence and others may just go with it. We may end up with a world in which we create our own everything, but the after we've dabbed in pure creation we as humans wouldn't be able to stop. We would crave it more than anything, it would become a drug to us. So I like the idea of a world where pure creation is possible, but I'll stick to this reality for the moment.

The Final Chance?

Brothers and sisters, the sky darkens as the future of the world becomes more clear, as the very planet releases it's anger upon us. The storm clouds build up quickly and eventually the rain will fall. In the distance thunder roars and a sense of foreboding looms.
We were put on this planet to care for it. We are the gardeners of Earth, but still we reject our duty. The rain begins to fall and we realise that our own greed and selfishness has destroyed this final safe place. A change of attitude and lifestyle is required but some of us cling to desperately to this thin sheet of life.
Life is only the thin shroud covering eternity and after death to us it will no longer hold much comfort. Lets save the world together. Field by field.

I feel Inspired

Some people question life and why we were put on this planet. (And if i'm repeating myself i'm sorry, but i am pulling this from the top of my head). But I believe that we were made to experience life partialy, so we know how valuable even an individual life is. Now we are surrounded by many forms of media including video games and the news which have desensitized us from loss of life. I understand the news is put there as an 'impartial' relay of information, but they could put some feeling behind the figures. It's as if saying "250 people found dead" is just another fact and figure to them. Gaming however places people in situations where killing is the only option. I know it's played down, but still it is making children and teenagers (and everyone inbetween) feel comfortable, about killing and around dead bodies.

"Violence reaps what violence sows" and that usualy means more bloodshed. For a good number of people crave revenge after death has visited.
