Sometimes I look around and see what's happening in the world and feel that it is being transformed into a wasteland. The changes aren't always obvious but sometimes are very apparent and so many of the changes don't seem to be moving us forward towards a better world.
The physical landscape changes in many ways we don't even understand yet and do people too; where that takes us is unknown. It's frightening and disheartening to think how quickly things have changed in so few years against the eons the world has existed, and how rapidly things keep changing, but even more frightening is that so many people don't think there's any problem at all, or wish to stay oblivious, and not enough is being done to rectify the problems.

Can they not hear the thunder that rolls or the groaning of the earth beneath us as it protests against the treatment it receives, don't they remember that the air was once much easier to breathe and water much easier to drink? Can people not see the conflicts that exist between people that are, in essence, all the same? Does mankind not care that religion and greed, pride and pettiness has people at one another's throats unnecessarily? Have people become so unfeeling or uncaring and do they not see the suffering of millions and that there seems no hope or action towards changing that despite there being many ways to make a change?
I remember when I didn't think this way and when my eyes saw wonder in everything; I try to emulate that each day; that was in a different time and I was a different me, and yet I try to rediscover it. I long for the awakening that must surely come when everything changes for the better and when the earth and human hearts can find peace and time to heal.
