"Hot in the City"

Hello fellow city dwellers,

The best time to live in the city is when the sun is shining, temperature is rising and the trees are colourful. It is the time when everyone wishes to spend as much time outside as they possibly can. It is spring. 

Spring brings with itself new hopes, goals and feelings. Walking through the city, one sees friends, couples and strangers smiling to one another, talking, enjoying the sun and each others company. It is even harder to spot those nervous and busy ones, because even they, in the light of the sun look friendlier, happy. 

The city is covered in posters of Rose and Jack, Titanic has coming back in 3D. It's a little sad that such an epic movie is introduced with the words "from the director of Avatar". Now don't get me wrong, I am a big fan of Avatar but Titanic goes beyond that. Not only was it first but in order to get people to go see it nowadays, the people responsible felt the need to tempt customers with amazing effects and new ideas. People want more, new technology, new effects. 

Is that what we are looking for? Effects to spice up the mundane reality? Or is it that we are scared to believe that the reality is all there is? Do we need to feed our imagination to survive in this crazy world?

Toodles.
