I was not too sure where to Put this, elsewhere seemed to hold a not relevant Feel to it. Even the Waste Thread did not seem right. So here I decided. Walking my Dogs has now become some days a Mammoth task. Usually the two Bigger dogs are quite well behaved (and I say Bigger but in Reality I find I have to say Older since the Puppy is now bigger than "Cooper") Anyway, since I have started to walk the Puppy who is very boisterous, I have to Keep a Keener Eye on the Road and Grassy areas they go on. The Dog ("Cooper") like most males likes to Scratch his legs after his business as a Bull would in the Field or Ring. So now I am constantly on the Lookout for broken Glass and recently Discarded Razor Blades. I am at a loss at the amount I am Finding and wonder just what is in the head of people that care so little, about Animals and Children that they can just Discard Razor Blades and Not Clear up Broken Glass. It may seem to some that I will constantly bring up these issues (For want of a better word) about these things but In a country where everyone moans about the cost of Healthcare and can ill afford the cost, People just do not help themselves in Doing their best to avoid silly Accidents that are just waiting to happen with these two Dangerous Objects. Of course, in not clearing these objects, puts others at great risk also. Anyone else on my Thought path here? JP
i'm renting a foreigner paid for house that's been occupied by his in-laws for about 10 years and i find lotsa razor blades, glass and trash in the lawn and bushes, ya hafta wonder how peoples' minds work here, i mean they got TV don't they? as far as ''silly accidents'', walk any downtown sidewalk or go into most any store in duma and observe the silly accidents waiting to happen. keeps ya on your toes, eh?
Sadly, in the main, what is in side their heads is - ABSOLUTELY NOTHING - - nor, I am sure, can anything be put there in many cases. I am constantly astounded at the seemingly lack of personal safety and security that some of the locals display, both children and adults.
Over a year ago I joined a beach clean organized by one of the members here. One of the areas I focused on was the across from Hay a Hay RestoBar where many of the younger generation drink and listen to the music at night. What astounded me was the amout of broken bottles thrown on the sandy beach below the sea wall there. I would definitely not recommend jumping in to the water there from the wall. I am sure they are other beaches with similar problems. Just keep your eyes open before jumping into the waters around here from objects in the water and sand. Remember nobody here cares about anyone. focusing only on their own interests, and saving time by properly disposing of dangerous objects is not in THEIR best interests. Be careful!
Quite right Roger but of course it goes so much further, they have absolutely no respect for any other Person on this earth as if it is here for them alone. and YET Many will be up there at the front complaining and Claiming from a Accident caused by others Somethings I sit's and Thinks about, other things I just Sit and watch JP
I darn near broke my back picking up all the garbage and discards surrounding my property! The Philippine government as one should resolute a garbage platform. For eg. For one half hour after each Mass with-in the Philippines....all congregations of individuals pick up garbage.The country would be cleaned in 2 weeks! Educating the young also on environmentally friendly action is a must also.
