Passing by a crossway passing you by you stare at me with a I know you sign look in your face. I stare back and noticed that I know you from somewhere could not remember. Later that day crossing back to head home I see you again and you noticed me again and I just look your way and smile at you. Okay your smiling back do we know each other I keep thinking he looks so familiar.
Were always saying that to ourselves when we see a familiar person but we probably do not know who they are which means never met them before not in this life. Another place time and world we have lived before we have met and we just remember each other. When that happens my Aunt always said find out go up to the person and ask them they will end up saying the same thing to you that they have seen you before somewhere.
Right away I called my aunt and told, I wanted to go and ask him have we met before I was so desperate to see what he would say but I could not see him anymore too many people going everywhere unable spot him again. I lost him.
It's Amanda's birthday and I have to buy something for her she is my best friend we met about 2 months ago and its like a life time friend for me. She has been so good to me I better get something good for her birthday party tonight. Arriving at the party right away she grabs my hand and runs towards the outside and says this is my friend I have been talking to you about he just moved here. I looked up the sun was glaring at my face
and there he was it's him the man from the crossway it's him. His staring at me with those eyes and I am so nervous did not know what to say I felt as if he was my boyfriend with my bestfriend that is how it felt it felt terrible and I don't even know him those thoughts went through my mind so fast that I just stood there like a fool just starring at him. I froze and went inside the house.
My best friend runs after me and asked what was wrong and I could not even say a word. I asked to go to the bathroom and in there all kinds of thoughts crossed me why was I acting this way why, is it love at first sight, I never been in love so how could I know.
I look outside through the window to look where his at, Hi I heard a man from behind me it's not that bad outside it is hot but the weather is great, come on outside the nice looking guy said, as he holds his hand out for me.
I turned and felt so save with him I reached out with my hand to him and followed him outside where we had a great talk about everything and had our great laughs like if we already knew each other from a long time. So glad he wasn't my best friends boyfriend but they knew each other from child hood. I really liked everything about him he was so interested in me too looked that way. I thought to myself what a man just what I have been looking for and just met him at the crossway from far away. I felt as if I want to stay with him like forever I am so glad I saw him again glad I remember you.

The problem with being a nice person
Who would have thought that being a nice person could be problematic. The majority of people would tell you that’s what they want to be or at least want those around them to be, but as it turns out, what we want and what we say we want are worlds apart. I won't stress or ramble on about how I would like things to be, but I’ll just analyze why this is, I am not sure either if a solution is even possible.

Thousands of people in the Democratic Republic of the Congo mine cobalt, in high demand for electric vehicle batteries
The extraction of cobalt in the Democratic Republic of the Congo plays a vital role in the global shift towards electric vehicles. The demand for cobalt is particularly high due to its use in the production of batteries for electric vehicles. To accelerate the transition, the European Union has announced plans to ban the sale of new cars with internal combustion engines from 2035 onwards. The majority of the world's cobalt supply comes from Congo, but this mining activity has resulted in significant environmental and social issues in the region. Foreign companies, including those from China and Switzerland, have been exploiting the cobalt reserves for their gain. Additionally, artisanal mining in the Congo is a major source of cobalt supply, but it comes at a cost. Artisanal miners face dangerous working conditions and receive low wages. The Congolese government has struggled to effectively regulate the industry, further exacerbating the problems. Chinese companies have been known to manipulate scales and cobalt content, impacting the profits of the miners. The artisanal mining of cobalt in the DRC is exploitative and detrimental to the local population. The cobalt mines in the DRC primarily cater to Chinese entrepreneurs, resulting in wealth generation for foreign companies. Shockingly, children as young as seven are forced to work in these mines, putting their lives and health at risk. This supply chain has faced significant public backlash, as big tech companies and car manufacturers benefit from it. The heavy reliance on Congolese cobalt has become a concern for the transition to electric vehicles. To address this issue, Europe has set a goal of establishing 30 giga factories by 2035 to ramp up battery production. Northvolt, the first battery factory in Europe, aims to compete with Asian manufacturers. Furthermore, Finland possesses deposits of all the minerals required for battery production. Europe's objective is to have 30 million electric vehicles on its roads by 2030.
