inside - I am immuned to such experiences.
outside - my thick skin keeps me protected from outside events.
future - it will be full of confusion.
there will be loads of things to enjoy, and lots of things to worry about.

inside - Recently I read a book called 'Chicken soup' consisting of very
inspiring stories about common people helping one another to face life's ups
and downs. I begin to appreciate the work done by people around me in a more
positive way.
outside - Two days ago I went for a hair cut and the young barber was so
careful and full of mindfulness when he trimmed my hair. It costs only B$4,
about one British pound. It is very important to go about our life with love and
consideration.
future - Hopefully people have learned to be more tolerant through the
globalisation of communications.

inside - Getting a stomach infection which laid me really low and
reminded me how important health is to living a full life
outside - A dramatic increase in burglaries in this generally most
peaceful and law abiding of countries. MAde me realise how I love physical
possessions, but what a hassle it can be worrying about keeping them; and how unimportant
they really are compared to health and family.
future - techno-dismal

inside - I dont know actually nothing really happens to me recently i.e.
major things!, well maybe new raise in salary?!
outside - Well new year!, new determination, new fresh start for the
coming year!!!!.....
future - As from me, as a Muslim, only god knows but for fun shake, as
technology becoming very popular nowadays especially IT/Computing Engineering;
modern communication will take place such like 3D virtualisation will may be
perfected. Modern era of transportation like fast flying motovehicles?! may be.... To
non affortable, rebellions might happen 'the fight of richest and poorest'!!!!.
About war, well, as more and more weapons created the more dangerous they will
be. I guess that if one organisation hold those weaponary then there is no
change to others and this will lead a democractic kind of ruling, well its good in a
way there might be peace. As they're busy with developing new kind of creation
there can be least activity of sex!!! the population will remain or retain in its
say what maybe for the next 5 years!! tajing about fashion?!, I have seen a lot
of fashion designers producing very weird dress nowadays, I guess it could be
very weird???.
