I recently added to this blog’s tagline the word Life. The reason being, that I decided that I would share my views and opinions about some of the things that I encounter that are meaningful or otherwise strike a nerve. All, to add a personal touch to the site.
I’d like to start off by talking about a line said in the latest James Bond installment, Quantum of Solace. The line read something along the lines of: “[If we refuse to do business with villains, we’d have almost no one to trade with…right or wrong doesn’t come into it; we’re acting out of necessity]”.

I feel this is an irresponsible thing to say, especially coming from a government official. If you lower yourself to the level of the villains, you become of them; you become part of the problem. Instead, you should take the villains out of commission and do business honorably or not do it at all because otherwise, what good are you? Any sacrifice would be worthwhile so long as the villains remain oil to our fresh water, unmixable. I know some people would argue that some things just have to be done, but that is not true. Anything we do, we do because we choose to not because we have to. I myself don’t have much to look out for and maybe that is why I see things this way; if I were a parent I would maybe do anything, but I still think morals should be up top.
