It is believed that there are 8400000 kinds of life forms on this planet. Human being is just one of them.
It is the only life form that can 'speak'.
It is perhaps the only life form that can 'consciously' do something in its efforts for a better life - in this one and the next!!!
For those who believe in re-birth, the re-birth can be any one of the 8400000 life forms. So you know the statistical probability of the next one being the same as the current one - human being.
Even this life form has no clue how long will it last, despite all the scientific advances.
Make this one count!
Count your blessings!
Make this life useful to others.
Do things that can possibly get you a better next life!
If you are wasting this, how sure are you that you will get a similar one again?

The Hype Blender
Articles, news items, web pages, power points nowadays are flooded with keywords considered hottest/coolest/most hip. I call that the Hype Blender. If you have a blender, add the latest buzzwords , run the blender for a few minutes..... you will get a concoction.
The concoction must be important and relevant since it contains the latest buzzwords, right???
Are you sure??
From a customer perspective, they see these concoctions in hundreds /thousands every day/week. If they end up believing/investing in everyone of them, they would be bankrupt in no time.
From a reader/viewer perspective as well, if they start believing every concoction with the latest buzzwords, they will go mad in no time!
The long term successes in my view are those
-that do not necessarily come from a blender
- that are original
- have deep thought behind them that pass critical scrutiny.
