My
Dream
Mankind
today is like the licking of the flames in a campfire. Consuming
ever, eating everything, reaching higher to consume more until there
is nothing left to consume. It's purpose under either major economic
model is to consume until we have nothing left to feed upon. Then to
die swiftly from our own greed.
However
we do have a different model to work with. We like all animals upon
our Mother the Earth have a purpose in nature. We are to be the
caretakers of Mother and all life. Instead have become the cancer
destroying life.
Our
job has been and still is to be good stewards. To care for each other
and all other forms of life instead of being a cancer or fire ever
seeking more. We are to be like water: filling, giving life and
companionship to each other. We learn war and greed from childhood
on. Even our entertainment worships war and greed. It's time for
mankind to pause and renew our oneness with all that is and take our
place in this world.
