The Beauty of Mother Nature.

Mother Nature certainly has more than a thousand secrets being kept away, some where exposed by the humans but yet some are still yet to be found. A sink-hole, is natural depression or hole found in the surface of the Earth. Some sink-hole were naturally made, however there were a few that was actually the side effect of mining.

I now would like to share with you, 10 weird and largest sink-hole in the world.

The Gate, Turkmenistan
It is also known as Darvaza, located in the middle of the Karakum Desert. This sink-hole was given a name, "Door to Hell" as up until today it is still actively breathing fire and pumping out sulphur gas. It was believe that the diameter of this hole is 60 meters with a depth of 20 meters.

Kimberley Diamond Mining, South Africa
The mine was said to be dug up without using any machinery, with the area of 17 hectares and below the surface a large hole was produced with a depth of 1097 meters deep. It is also known as the "Big Hole". The hole is so large with its beautiful blue water made it visible from space. 

Monticello Dam, California
This drain hole is located in Napa County. It is also known as "Bottomless Pit". This glory hole was constructed between 1953 and 1957, with a diameter of 22 meters wide whilst the critical drop if 86 meters.

Bingham Canyon Mine, Utah

This is the largest man-made hole in the world. The mining giant size of 4 km wide with a depth of 1.2 km into the soil, the extraction began in 1863 and still is active up to today.

Diavik Mine, Canada
The Diavik Diamond Mine is a diamond mine in the North Slave Region of the Northwest Territories, Canada, about 300 kilometres north of Yellowknife. Owned by Harry Winston Diamond Corporation and Diavik Diamond Mines Inc, this mine has been producing over 1600 kg or diamonds each year.

Huge Hole, Guatemala
This huge hole was a disaster to the people in Guatemala, it was found in February 2007 as deep as 100.5 meters. It was a reaction towards a poor sewer.

Udachnaya Pipe, Russia
This diamond mine with a depth of 600 meters was found in Jun 1955, two days after a Soviet geologist, Vladimir Shchukin and his team found a priceless diamond.

Chuquicamata, Chile

Right to Love

There is an issue that I've been wanting to discuss about for so long, but I never had the courage to do so. Why? Because it is somehow a very sensitive issue, called "Right to Love". I believe it equality between gender, I believe in human rights, yet I still belief in the norms of religion. This is solely on my point of view and on what I believe should have taken place long ago. If my opinions and suggestion are wrong then let it be, all I'm doing right now is to share some piece of mind, a piece of opinion that I believe should be consider by others.

Right to Love

Sexual orientation and gender identity are integral to every person's dignity and humanity and must not be on the basis for discrimination or abuse. However, some people have faced discrimination and violation of their rights. There is a need to learn the basic human rights related to one's sexual orientation and gender identity, for one to live a healthy life with dignity. 

Let us learn on the following rights of individuals:
  • Principle 1 - The Right to the Universal Enjoyment of Human Rights.
  • Principle 2 - The Rights to Equality and Non-discrimination.
  • Principle 3 - The Right to recognition before the law.
  • Principle 4 - The Right to Life.
  • Principle 5 - The Right to Security of the Person.
  • Principle 6 - The Right to Privacy.
  • Principle 7 - The Right to Freedom from Arbitrary deprivation of liberty.
  • Principle 8 - The Right to a Fair Trial.
  • Principle 9 - The Right to Treatment with Humanity while in Detention.
  • Principle 10 - The Right to Freedom from Torture and Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment.
  • Principle 11 - The Right to Protection from all forms of exploitation, sale and trafficking of human beings.
  • Principle 12 - The Right to Work.
  • Principle 13 - The Right to Social Security and to other Social Protection measures.
  • Principle 14 - The Right to an Adequate Standard of Living.
  • Principle 15 - The Right to Adequate Housing.
  • Principle 16 - The Right to Education.
  • Principle 17 - The Right to the Highest Attainable Standard of Health.
  • Principle 18 - Protection from Medical Abuses.
  • Principle 19 - The Right to Freedom of Opinion and Expression.
  • Principle 20 - The Right to Freedom of Peaceful Assembly and Association.

  • Principle 22 - The Right to Freedom of Movement.
  • Principle 23 - The Right to seek Asylum.
  • Principle 24 - The Right to Found a Family.
  • Principle 25 - The Right to Participate in Public Life.
  • Principle 26 - The Right to Participate in Cultural Life.
  • Principle 27 - The Right to Promote Human Rights.
  • Principle 28 - The Right to Effective Remedies and Redress.
  • Principle 29 - Accountability.
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. All human rights are universal, interdependent, indivisible and interrelated. The principles above will help to ensure that your rights and value as a human being is clearly defined and stated. The challenge now remains for you to respect and promote these rights as a valuable member of your community.

I leave you with these for your reading and understanding.
