We are all members of a fast and busy world. As if, there are more events and changes in the bounds and limits of the time than in the past. Before we clean up yesterda/s remains; the developments tum into real issues. The world is on one side affected by natural disasters; on the other side, it has been obîiged to struggle against the disasters caused by human beings. Conflicts and agreements with different dimensions and depths keep all the minds busy. Individual and social concerns may be not showing themselves at the same level, however, they impact everyone. The other cross sections of human life surround the world by alerting each other like a domino effect. In other words, life consists of numerous phenomena, events, and happenings and we have a 'rich' life. Furthermore, if we remember the metaphor that the world is spinning faster in the 21st century, it should not be considered an exaggeration.
