rewriting my brain cloud

yes, life is a constant rewrite. as told early in my psych 101 subject at UP, our thought process adjusts to new stimuli. the brain assimilates and accommodates to new learnings. we start out life as a blank supposedly - a tabula rasa. but such little brain picks up impressions and expressions speedily. and even in its infancy, the brain mightily does its own deletions and erasures. thoughts can be destroyed and be reconstructed.

such is our views with our own living. the hard opinions we now make may just be some reason for feeble whining the next day. the improbability today may just be the most certain thing tomorrow. at times, loads of information may just be needed to stack up until you form a feasible understanding of things going on. and this includes that heated discussion on some disturbing weather patterns.

at first, i was not into this global warming hullaballo. such scientific warning was just another rendition of an apocalypse-now exposition. but this climate thing, this year, weirds me out a lot. supposedly a dry spell should occur this august, and yet here comes the rain again. oh yes, our PAGASA now easily says that the la nina phenomenon is just around some corner. an aftershoot of prayer power perhaps or just truly the effect of that thing called - global warming. (by the way, remember as well that even during the early summer this year, cold spell very much enveloped the luzon area - such that we even had frosted vegetation.)

as my mind's deliberation has probably ended, apparently the academic debate over this process seems not to be over yet. it turns out as i read my two week old newsweek (cover: beijing readies for the olympics), megacorporations dole out megabucks to some quarters in the scientific community to provide excuses for purported global warming. now their main justification seems to be that global warming is a natural happenstance, and not to be blamed on gas emissions.

hmm...well and good....as my views on such occurrence have started with question marks and have ended now with some exclamation points. of course until the next rewrite.

now i wonder if this blogsite has an edit button for such purpose.
