A welcome to all boiled frogs around the world!

What is a boiled frog?
According to scientific fact (or fiction?), a frog being put into hot water would immediately jump out again to save its life. If the same frog would be put into cold water that would be slowly heated, it would not recognize the danger and would be cooked to death.

Well, it doesn't really matter whether this is a true story or not (besides the cruel treatment of frogs), because boiled frogs DO exist. You can see them every day. Just that these frogs are walking on two legs ... and dress like humans. But yet they are boiled frogs, no doubt.

They complain about how bad things are. And that everything is getting worse by the minute. But instead of taking a leap and trying to change their situation they are waiting for things to get better again. They can feel the temperature rising, but they are ignoring the risks. They are hoping that it will go away - the temperature will drop again. But it rarely does. And as the temperature is rising, moving becomes harder and harder. And finally they surrender to the circumstances. And they end up as a boiled frog.

This blog is about boiled frogs - people that I met that should be changing something but don't have the courage to do it. And it is about brave frogs - people I met that made a change to the better.
