The short essay posted below inspired me to create this infographic. Water is universal. It makes up 65% of our body and 71% of the earth. Fundamentally, without it we would quickly die.
We can learn many lessons from water, and on a macro level I feel as though I can see a parallel between how water reacts to the application of energy over time and how humanity reacts to the application of energy over time. Macro-energy effects macro-populations. Macro-energy includes the sun, the world economy, and the climate, just to name a few. Lets not be frogs friends, things are heating up!
As the temperature of the water begins to rise, the frog adjust its body temperature accordingly.
The frog keeps adjusting its body temperature with the increasing temperature of the water. Just when the water is about to reach boiling point, the frog cannot adjust anymore. At this point the frog decides to jump out.
The frog tries to jump but it is unable to do so because it has lost all its strength in adjusting with the rising water temperature.
Very soon the frog dies.
What killed the frog?
Think about it!
I know many of us will say the boiling water. But the truth about what killed the frog was its own inability to decide when to jump out.
We all need to adjust with people & situations, but we need to be sure when we need to adjust & when we need to move on. There are times when we need to face the situation and take appropriate actions.
If we allow people to exploit us
physically, emotionally, financially, spiritually or mentally they will continue to do so.
Let us decide when to jump!
Let's jump while we still have the strength.
