Tiger populations by 2022

  Tiger, Tiger, burning bright In the forests of the night, What immortal hand or eye Could frame thy fearful symmetry? ~William Blake~ "According to WWF's plan in helping the remaining tiger population by 2022, their goals are to eradicate threats and create environments where they can thrive.  The main concerns are that 3 subspecies are already extinct. Tiger habitats have shrunk by over 40% in the last decade alone. Today, tigers are limited to only 7% of their historical range. The illegal trade in wild life is the third largest form of organised crime in the world after arms and drugs! Tigers will soon be gone  ....almost gone  forever." (Source: WWF )

Tiger Forum 2010

  It is an amazing news with this week's Tiger Summit starting from Nov 21 - Nov 24, hosted by Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, an extraordinary global effort,  to organize a workable strategy to save the tiger. It was estimated that today,  fewer than 3,200 tigers remain in the wild of the world, 97% less compared to 100,000 tigers a century ago.  The ultimate fate of saving the tiger population will depend on the solid commitments of the agreed strategies by the 13 tiger range countries' governments.

Life perspective

               Always remember that you are loved, even when it doesn't seem like it. Believe in yourself and your values. Don't sell out when things go wrong. Don't let anything get you down; always bounce back up. Set goals for your future and never settle for anything less. Realize that there are others in the world with much bigger problems than you. Appreciate the good things in your life, and be thankful for the time you have with your loved ones. Spend more time with your family and friends. Appreciate the simple things in life, and don't get caught up in material things. If you follow that advice you can't go wrong! So the next time you're looking at a situation in your life: Is the cup half empty? Or is the cup half full? Be an optimist and see the cup as being half full. Before long, your attitude will rub off on others. You can make the world a better place by simply making yourself a happier pers

Life is a miracle

Life is a miracle don't let it slip away, Open your heart to others give of yourself each day.  See the beauty in everyone regardless of where they've been, Some have a difficult journey and really need a friend. Share your gifts and talents listen with your heart. Do the things you dream about but don't have time to start. Pick a bouquet of flowers show someone that you care, Be gracious and forgiving life is never fair. Hold on to your courage you may need it down the road, We all have a cross to bear it could be a heavy load. If you practice all these things no matter where you roam, You may find both sun and rain but you'll never feel alone! ~Author Unknown~
