Then have a look at the Rawit (chili), which is as small as a match-head, so innocent and harmless looking. But even a tiny bite is enough to give you a shock of blazing hell in mouth, lips, throat, ears, eyes and makes you scream for help and water. Nonetheless, it can’t be lessened or extinguished even by buckets and tanks full of water. Though most wouldn’t like to miss Rawit at dinner time.
Sure, I could visit my past today just by visiting a lonely village on my way from Rumpin to Gobang in the Bogor region.
Sure we could write about the past, paint the past. But I can’t hear my choir singing before, except on my VCD, DVD, CD or on tape.
With my simple digital camera will I now record my old video, audio recordings, re-edit them and so broadcast it in You Tube to have them “live forever”. It is not a privilage, monopoly of broadcasting stations anymore, though having the best equipment. Everyone can do the same, contribute to something new, to revive the past and that’s even more.
What happy circumstances as I think that You Tube can save and bring many things back to life for anyone to see and hear.
