Life Here & There
No Comments Life Here and There and There and There
Unless you are uniquely gifted in the category of geography, all of us can stand to improve our geographical skills. Actually knowing which continent a country is on would advance the understanding of many people of life somewhere else.
For example, knowing that the Philippines is close to the equator and is a nation of islands exposed to currents would prevent them from asking questions like “Do you get much snow there?” Or “I wish I had your tan.” It is really hard to be nice and polite when someone says something so stupid or ignorant.
So for a fun exercise, try and keep up with the following song. But as a side note, this was done in the 1980’s so a new verse would be needed to cover all of the changes of Czechoslovakia, Burma, the USSR and a few others that have undergone changes. Change is a constant we all have to deal with.
But this is just a fun blast from the past.
