This shows you my world during economical crisis and recession. If I wouldn't hear every day in the News that we are poor and nearly starving I could hardly believe it.
Before the economical crisis, my world looked like this :
a peaceful pasture (the cows are on strike)
Exactly one and a half year later because of economical crises, a new shopping mall is built on this beautiful place.
Another shop a little farer. Logically there must be people who still shop ??
and houses grow like mushrooms in my street and not the smallest once. There still must be money, because credits for a house are hard to get and you have to have at least 30 % of the value cash on your bank account.
Honnestly I prefer the time we didn't have any recession and economical crisis in Waterloo !
(more about that in the post below)
That's more than just a little strange and sad (the shopping mall part).
ReplyDeleteI don't understand a lot of things either.
Maybe better that way, sigh :(
Your world definitely looked lot better and greener before recession. :)
ReplyDeleteI have seen it happen in our previous house, the cows disappeared and houses were built! Ewww!
ReplyDeleteEvery place has changes for better or worse.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos. Great place.
ReplyDeleteI hope the bottom doesn't fall out soon and leave everything half-finished!
ReplyDeleteYup, same here.
ReplyDeleteKeep taking the services away from our hospital - but more houses being built and more new shopping centres - but small shops closing down.
Isn't that just a bomber. Such a lovely view of nature's own glory in ruins because of the 'money rules' world we live in. And for what? Were will all the customers to all these 'shopping paradises' come from? New ones are built up - old ones die down. What's the point in that?
ReplyDeleteI too wonder about this glorious new world of ours.
the whole world is going crazy.
ReplyDeleteThe recession is hitting everywhere
ReplyDeleteI agree, your world looks a lot better when it was greener before the recession. It did happen to us here too..it's sad.
ReplyDeleteDevelopment???Hate it or love it???
ReplyDeleteLife goes on, easy for some harder for others. Sad to lose your green space.
the recession is hitting people here in the us in different ways. i work and our house is paid for so we are fortunate in that way. but, things are more expensive than a year ago...gas, food, utilities and such.
ReplyDeleteliked the shot of your kittykids...now i know they are going to have to catch mice ^..^
take care.
the green space was so beautiful. Like you I prefered the landscape before the recession!
ReplyDeleteHm. I don't like it when it grows like that.... I prefer the cows too!
