Look around you my fellow human beings… Until the moment of penning down this personal plea, there are countless natural disasters damaging our beautiful home planet that we call earth. From earthquakes, tsunamis, thypoons, heavy rains, floodings, mudslides as well as landslides, even the snow seasons come earlier than usual to some parts of the worlds this year to name a few. Yet why are we so seriously affected by these occurances? If we would only open our eyes maybe we can truly see. I’ll tell you what I see and maybe you will understand why I am writing this plea to all of you who will come to read this.
The world is going crazy and we really don’t have any clue. If there is war that we really have to execute it would only be a war against overpopulation, a war to battle our wrongdoings, a war to pave the way to a better future for all of Humanity, to life, to Earth, to the plants and animals. We bring children into this world for too many reasons. Whatever it is and however it is, most of us failed to consider if we can provide our children a secure future for their growth, a future for their children, and to their children’s children. In other words, to the future of Earth humans.
Presently the population of our world is multiplying at a very alarming rate. The eternal and unchanging laws of nature (Creation) are being altered in so many ways. We shed mountains of their trees to give way to homes that are not necessary in the first place, and only for the reasons of overpopulation. For these reasons we are very much affected by natural disasters in many ways. If only we could learn and understand that we need to balance the space of lands and the resources that we have in a responsible way. There exists enough information already mentioned by other persons in this group so as the many who share the same endeavour. We as human being has the responsibility to Earth and it’s surrounding as well as to all living beings, what has taken Billions if not Millions of year’s of evolution, we the humans of Earth are eradicating in less than a fraction of second in comparison. Have we really utilized all of humanities progress in all fields of science for the benefits of humankind?
The damaged is evidence of what humanity have become, a group of human’s divided by too many things that we need to overcome for us to live under the same sky which is the common roof that we truly share as well as the air that we breathe. And the earth below that we ravage, poison, mistreat and strip-off everything we can right to the bone. All progress and achievements of humanity in all terms are being applied and executed without proper consideration and for only one reason, and that reason is to have plenty. Plenty of material possessions that we all know we could never bring along when we exhaled our last breath.
But not all is lost if we could only learn to listen and look around, it will soon be too late and we have a lot of work to be done. All we need to do is open our eyes and learn to really look and we can answer this question. The damage is done and we have been warned. When are we really going to start to listen and act righteously, is the only question that remains…
