Just my thoughts #0707

Milutin Milanković argued that the Earth’s Ice Age was caused by a change in the Earth’s orbit around the sun. This change is said to affect the inclination of the Earth’s northern and southern hemispheres and reduce the amount of solar radiation. However, the main reason is believed to be that summer isn’t hot enough. The ice kept accumulating as summer passed, and winter arrived before all the ice could melt. Even in our lives, things we neglect tend to build up and lead to big problems. Small, untreated chores can produce significant results over time. Good luck or bad luck, maybe that’s all there is. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0421

To achieve what humans desire, they must first tackle the tasks they are reluctant to face. If you wish to live simply, you need to organize the chaotic and complex aspects of life. It’s akin to cooking, even when it feels bothersome, to enjoy a delicious meal. Yet, we often prefer to eat only what others have prepared. If you solely seek comfort and immediate gratification, you’ll depend only on luck and chance. Some people aren’t familiar with the concept of earning their due, even when the price is offered, and it can understandably be challenging to compensate the right person. These individuals often act as if they don’t own a car, merely waiting for a bus. It’s better to have a car owner who can drive them wherever and whenever they desire, even if driving involves hard work, rather than simply waiting for a ride. Taking initiative in life is a privilege reserved for those willing to endure inconvenience and who can afford to pay the price. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
