It’s Okay To Slow Down

It’s okay to slow down because if you don’t you increase the risk of extinction. If you think extinction is not on the table right now think again. The Earth is testing us right now. You can imagine if you wish but there are those of us who believe in a planet being alive. This one is pissed off. This one wants to heal and you are preventing that.

I mean, why are people so reluctant to slow down?

For thousands of years people fasted, stayed in their tiny homes, ate what they preserved, and enjoyed games and crafts within their seclusion.

Why must you gather in churches each week?

Are you that much of a sinner that you need that weekly squeegee?

Why must you go to a club every Friday or Saturday night?

Are you that upset at having to work that you must drown your sorrows one or two days per week?

The things people complain about during a pandemic is a long list.

I watch new shows on tv at night and hear the actors talking about how the world ended. This is very irresponsible. Overblown ideas of the state of the world. If She wanted you gone, you would be gone, period!

Regardless of your complaints it just shows that people are still so selfish in their lives that they cannot see the bigger picture.

There are times Mother (Earth) needs you to go to your room for a time out. You must learn to recognize the power she has to hurt you and destroy you. Remember when your mother would say, “I brought you into this world. I can take you out?”

It is no different for a whole planet whose soul is alive and expresses herself as a mother in every way. She is trying to warn you of your selfish ways and the harm it is doing to her air, water, and soil. She didn’t build an atmosphere for you. She didn’t build the oceans, lakes, and streams for you. You happen to be able to live in her perfect conditions but you choose to personally contribute or be an accessory to the pollution that makes her sick.

Would you pour gasoline or plastics into your mothers food and drink?

When money has taken over your senses, you stop looking at the power and stop fearing the power that gave you the privilege to exist on the planet.

We don’t need to do what other men and women tell us to do but we have no choice to heed the demands of the world you screwed up.

So please, for your very lives, for your children, and for a future that has humans in it, stop bitching about the restrictions. It is time to change because there is no longer a choice.
