So, then as I see it, we are in the position
that we need to speak for those who are
unable to be heard. I say this because I once
mistakenly thought that our non-two-legged
relatives were "those who are unable
to speak for themselves"....but see that's not
true, they can, will and do speak for themselves,
but us two-leggeds are making so much noise that we are usually unable/unwilling to hear/listen to what they are telling us. I know for myself, personally, I still hear them & I listen and I do my best to be of service to them.
I basically don't give a fig for the two-leggeds, our heads are so stuck that I'm thinking it might be too late for us...the greed, the self-absorption, the active ignorance (call it stoopidity), the short sightedness/tunnel vision....The MEMEs. and refusal to take responsibility for anything that does not self gratify.
I mean just look at the trash on the roads, in the parking lots...even @ the Library I work in (an Upper Class Neighborhood)...there is trash all over. Look at the abandoned animals, children, adults.... Look at the poisons we happily, willingly, purposely consume.....it's no wonder we are sick.
Example..... kidney & liver disease but you Never drink water.....you only ever drink Diet Soda & coffee....so what do you think is going on there? Is your body trying to tell you something? You're obese & have diabetes but you insist on Diet Soda (for breakfast even), and you live on junk & fast foods....so what the Hell do you think?
Come on folks...these things are "non-brainers".....You don't have to be a super model in a high fashion magazine, or a celebrity, or in People magazine to be happy. You need to find balance, get over your childhood (it's called Therapy), be One with Creator & assimilate into a more natural (Green/Healthy) lifestyle.
Yeah...that's the ticket! Get a healthy, balanced life or your gonna end up getting off the planet sooner than you expected (which could be a good thing).
So...here's something more to ponder on:
Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 29 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
"We forget so we consider ourselves superior. But we are, after all, a mere part of the creation and we must consider to understand where we are and we stand somewhere between the mountain and the Ant. Somewhere and only there is a part and parcel of the creation." | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
--Chief Oren Lyons, ONONDAGA | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Every human being gathers information from the center of a circle. If we are not careful, we soon think we are the center of all things. Therefore, it is easy to become self centered. Once we become self centered we start to think we are above all things and therefore superior. But we are really only one part of a great whole. The universe is all connected. Each part is here to do something special and according to its design. We are here to honor and respect the job of each part. We are neither above nor below anything. We need not be ruler over anything, we need only to live in honor and harmony with the system.
