A friend posted this on facebook and it brought me to tears. It is one of the most moving videos I have ever seen. Here a young girl speaks from her heart. And it is as though she is speaking from mine as well. From one heart to another...
We've been talking about this and taking steps to move in this direction. But there are so many more who don't read or don't care of who believe everything that corporate america is telling them. And it is a state of mind all over the world. I will do what I want. It doesn't matter how it effects the environment or people or creatures that live here too. I'm not going to share this planet, I am going to run it like a machine.
The only way we can get the people who are running our planet into the ground is to stop ourselves first. And then gently, spread the word. I bet it would be an absolute amazing revolution if everyone just decided to do one good thing for the planet and for another every day. Just one thing. Pick up trash. Don't buy things in plastic containers if the containers are storing food. Have less children. Be more responsible about your birth control. Man that alone would be revolutionary. I think it would become contagious. It would feel so good to show a kindness. A random act of kindness. To share something.
We think we have to have some great big answer. But we don't. We need to open our eyes. There's a ton of plastic in the ocean bigger than Texas. There's more from the tsunami's of the past few years. And it is polluting the water and poisoning the fish and sealife. How did it get there? Figure it out. Do some research. And when you give it a good thinkin' make a decision for yourself. Look around you and figure something out. Think about your life choices and decide not to contribute to something that is destroying our planet. It is time to support those items or people or farmers that are contributing something healthy to all of the life here on this planet we share.

I enjoy bringing together music, writings and research about topics that I find interesting. I like to share images of my artwork and write about what inspires me. Telling stories about Coco, my Akita Service Dog is one of my favorite things to do. And now and then, I write about what it is like to go through life with a Traumatic Brain Injury and PTSD. These are the breadcrumbs that lead me back to a frame of mind or concept that would otherwise be forgotten.
