The Good Earth
 |
| "Sacred" |
Our planet moves according to natural law.
It is of spiritual and material origin, designed to create, protect and sustain life.
It generates weather, expands and contracts to eliminate stress (earthquakes, volcanoes) and routinely transits through several fixed expressions which are central and instrumental to life here such as the life giving sun the moon at night (illumination) and the Four Seasons (summer, fall, winter and spring).
Yet, most of us are unaware of just how much these earthly processions
influence our lives.
There is a cadence, an unseen harmony that weaves its way in and out of nature.
It beckons and eventually we heed its call.
When we begin to understand this energy is when we feel at peace walking through a forest, wonderment as we watch a celestial event, deep satisfaction in planting a garden and joy at the birth of a baby.
All of these experiences bring forth the essence and the connection that surrounds us, revealing itself in the miracle of life.
This is where I find a dark connection between people who commit acts of violence and people with mental instability and all due to a lack of knowledge about what their true roles are here.
Love is the center of the universe.
Earth is no exception.
Why do you think our hearts are located in the center of our chests?
We are here to connect with one another, not distant ourselves from each other.
We are here as caretakers not only to oversee the health of earth but on behalf of all life here.
When it comes to teaching natural law, it is ignored by our educational system or people who can’t access it because they live in areas where it’s impossible to experience nature, or science believes it’s unworthy, or religious leaders don’t believe it’s an important part of their curriculum.
We, thus, continue to be in free fall, living out our lives as castaways, tossing about on a raging sea of ignorance, continuously bobbing up and down, surviving and only superficially as we still haven’t figured out the meaning of why we’re here, yet still breathing and only because a weathered plank of timber just happened to float by and we were miraculously able to grab onto it.
If earth is ever to complete its ascent toward its rightful place in the cosmos, would you agree we need more access to the knowledge that has been kept from us?
The first part of knowledge is this: “All life is important on earth."
The second part is: “We are here to love one another.”
I propose more parks and hiking trails and walking paths and seminars on natural remedies and holistic living, organizations and teachers and manufacturers, engineers and home builders who understand that using nature as their blueprint and incorporating it into their buildings, our homes and offices will result in transformation for the human race and break the chains of our limited understanding and enslavement.

Ode to Earth
 |
| Planet Earth |
Each day I walk out my door and look down at the carpet of grass under my feet and then turn to walk into the fragrant pines nearby, inhaling in their perfume and watch songbirds soar to and fro in the warm summer air. I cannot help but marvel, "how is all of this possible?"
A tiny red rose whose fragrance is beyond measure shyly peeks up at me, a nanny goat who just birthed a little one tenderly caring for it, an old man walking slowly toward his mail box with the help of a neighbor, the wind tousling my hair as I plant a garden seed and expectantly wait and watch as it sprouts and unfolds into a bean, a carrot or a bright yellow sunflower.
~The Miracle of Life~
We have lost our curiosity, our ability of wonderment down here and need to regain it along with a respect for this planet and the creatures that inhabit it. Life is so busy now, so crazy now that all we have time for is listening to insane news morning and night, get the kids off to school, go to work, come home, eat, wash dishes, do homework, watch t.v. and go to bed. Then start the process all over again the next day. With no time to wonder or question or think about what greets us as we wake up in the morning - the sunrise and what beckons us goodnight - moonrise. We don't have time to marvel at a rainbow or watch a little fledgling bird take its first flight.
My job here on this planet is that of a caretaker. I kinda morphed into this through the years and had no idea I'd still be doing this and so late in life but it's what I do. I take care of livestock, cats, dogs, birds, a vegetable garden, flowers, kids and Grandkids.

I look outside my window
At the sun that's going down
Rays of darkness everywhere
And on people's face a frown
We've lost our way
We're in the fray
But, always, Hope abounds
A man of dreams
Who brings sunbeams
To every one in town
It's coming folks
A new array
So don't be discouraged
Don't be dismayed
By what you see going on
Everyday
