Elders Wisdom 7/19/2014
I
guess if we are going to have civilization her in this world it's up to
a handful of people to lead the way. We have no peace, no security, no
cooperation, no community and no rights under the corporate rule.
Who
is teaching the wages of peace brings s all more security. Who is
teaching that even animals have rights? Who is teaching that everyone
has a right to a lifetime of education? Who is teaching that each and
every individual human being is sacred and has something special to
share with the rest of us? Who is teaching that all of us have to learn
to work together for the benefit of all? Who is trying to bring
traditional knowledge and give it a modern spin so it can be used by
everyone? Who is caring for our Mother the Earth? Where are the
Earthkeepers, the Peacemakers, the Community builders and the People who
say to the strangers, Hello Friend?
Who offers
a kind word to someone who has reached the limits of what they can
endure? Who lifts up and binds the wounds of those who have fallen no
matter the reason? Who teaches how to use council to find solutions that
serve all of us? Who will stand between warring parties as a human
shield? Who grows to feed them self and others without asking in
return?who goes out of the way to choose to offer friendship to those
who would attack him or her?
We
do not need more government, nor bigger corporations. Each and every
one of us is a part of the whole. It doesn't matter what your sex is,
what you skin color is, what your religion or lack of is, what matters
is are you working toward a kinder, more inclusive world. If you
fighting it because you feel you will lack I can only say try. If your
afraid to take the first step, I can only quote another "Follow me."
Our
government either responds to the needs of all or it will fail and be
replaced. Our religions either teach that the stranger is us or be
replaced. Our cities are massive blocks to community and need to be
changed, what better place to start then Detroit and Gaza? All
government is local and regional for every one has the same limitations
and needs. Only by working together to solve problems may we truly call
our self as CIVILIZED.
