This weeks theme is……Food

June 7, 2011

What’s up guys.

Want to start getting replys from you all. I can see that there is heaps of activity happening so here we go. Each week I am going to write about a theme. Obviously this weeks is FOOD. Where you get it? Have you gone without it? What happens to you when you get really hungry etc.

Food is the second most important substance that you put into your body. Water being the first. It helps us think, act, feel, live. And without it or knowing where your next meal is going to come from is REALLY scary. So the point of this….. This dude named Abraham Maslow created a chart listing the hierachy of needs. What does this mean, basically, To be at the top of the pyrimad you have to achieve all the steps below. The first step is Physiological.- food, water, sex, sleep, excretion (pooing and weeing). This may seem like an easy step for most, but there is a F LOAD of people who are living on the streets and only meet one maybe two parts. To the point – food is extremly important.

I Want you all to leave a post letting me know:
What’s your favourite food? (Mine….Corned beef)
What happens to you when your hungry? (OMG I become the crankiest person in the world. I become sooo irrational over everything. The wind is blowing the wrong way, No you can’t sit like that etc)
What would you do if you didn’t have any? (When I was 16 and homeless, The Anglican Church in Bundaberg, QLD used to do hot dinners like 3 times a week, that’s where I went)

Peace

The ‘Ugly’ choice…

Hey guys;

So we’ve got another competition for you guys!

Have any of you heard about the glassing case that went before the courts last week? Well in a nutshell, a few years ago in a nightclub a guy glassed a stranger in the face because he wrongly thought the stranger had spat at his girlfriend. The consequences of this single action have been devastating for all involved. The victim has suffered permanent scarring to his face and the attacker was sentenced to three years in jail for what the judge called a ‘extraordinary display of violence’. You can read more about the case here.

The attacker made a very ugly choice that night, and no doubt one he will regret for a very long time. So what we want to know is: what choice would you have made that night?

For your chance to win a $50 iTunes gift card all you’ve got to do is answer the above question in 25 words or less. You can enter by either:
a) posting a reply here (make sure you leave a valid email address so we can contact you if you win)
b) email us at info@livenofear.com.au with your answer

Simple as that! Competition closes at midnight on the 1st of June.
