I am a firm believer in recycling, reuse, waste management and to start with, I try not to waste. Especially when it comes to food, water and electricity. India has a scarcity of all of these and many people in other places go hungry, thirsty and without power for hours...which I have had to deal with when I was in Africa...man those were the painful days...no video games for 20 hours a week!!!
I also believe that things should be thrown away when absolutely no other choice exists. Like bottles and similar sort of containers.
For e.g. when I was a kid my parents would re-use bottles of vinegar and Gin to fill em up with water and then put it into the fridge so as to have cold water. But this led to some unwanted incidents of me gulping down VINEGAR instead of water after coming home from playing a couple of hours in the SUN!!! Painful.
(Might I add, that as you got older you tend made that mistake on purpose (oxymoron I know) with the Gin bottle :-) )
Today, I found a tin that was marked with "Nutrilite-- Protein supplement" and well I thought let's try this out. I made a milk shake of it and drank it all. It didn't dissolve completely and had a powdery feeling by the end of it.
Now, it struck me a moment later that i picked that tin up from off my sister's dressing table.
I really hope i haven't gone and drunk some make-up related powder kinda thing...I hope she comes home fast so I can ask her.....
Why can't people take off the labels or mark new labels on the reused containers???
Well just in case...it was nice knowing all of you...
Good bye cruel world...
