matter of perspective and other toxic stuff

For some weird reason, this has been my cellphone wall paper for some time now (since I took the pic). I know it's a weird picture. Can't actually make ou what it is. Some think it's a car wheel. Or a random picture I downloaded from the internet.

It's actually the inside of a C2 bottle held up against the bluish violet light of the mosquito killer in my bro's room.

It just reminds me that everything is a matter of perspective. Looking at things from a different point of view changes how you see everything.

Today was my first executive-legislative meeting. The agenda was the supposed toxic dumpsite which was exposed a year ago by an ex employee of the company. Last March 4, ABS-CBN revisited the issue thus we need to reevaluate the actions the municipality has taken to prove or disprove the allegations.

A lot of questions were thrown to the Mayor during the meeting. And as I listened intently to his answers, it reminded me of a Miss Universe beauty pageant. Sure sure. World peace is a very good answer. But do contestant really want that if they got one wish. I would bet half of them would really want a new car, or a new house or something shallow and materialistic. But that wouldn't win them the crown.

Just like the mayor could give the actually answers to the questions but nobody would like them. I have just devolved public service into a beauty pageant.
