Unknown AIDS
Tuesday, December 2, 2008 0:02AIDS crept its way to general publics awareness with suspicion, fear and disgust. Feelings were the first to make their impact on us. It didn’t matter what kind of facts there were on the table. It has taken decades for those numbers and informercials to sink into our consciousness. But sunk it did and epidemic that ballooned like mid-aged man’s belly started to loose some air. With fear came caution and facts used the caution as an engine to increase the awareness.
Now we know better and we finally start to have means to slow down this beast of an organism that they call AIDS. Look where it has gotten us, we have become arrogant and self-assured, now we feel that we are back in control and can do what we like. As a result, developed countries are seeing their good development deteriorate and the virus finds new roads to our lives.
STORY OF ALL THINGS NEW
This is life as we know it. We are afraid of new things and only few of us can really thrive on change and unknown. Most of us want to keep to ourselves and wait if it passes and by now the wise have noticed it rarely does. In our fear of changes and something new we lock ourselves from opportunities to learn and develop ourselves. Then we loose opportunities again as we finally believe that we know something. Seems like life is just big circle of ignorance that shakes hands with itself. Marketers and sales people can learn lot about human nature by studying the general population’s reaction to AIDS.
