Cyclone Nargis has torn up Myanmar/Burma, and there's also a huge earthquake in China. As Eva Hopkins wrote in Linsner.com, "That's pretty apocalyptic for a span of 9 days. Gaia is angry with us. Make sure your insurance is up-to-date! Though they don't usually cover acts of God(dess).
Now they're beginning to assess the damage & casualties. It boggles the mind."
And it really does.
What am i doing to start helping? There's more to do but i started with:
I nearly watch TV or light a room at night, just the one i need, i do most of the laundry by hand to save water and electricity, i already got used to it, no dryer or dish washer, no blender, i don´t even iron my clothes, i´m teaching my daughter some agriculture and hydroponic methods, i go shop with the same bag always and ask the people on the supermarkets to do the same so we wont carry gazillions of plastic bags home, i buy organic food, wont eat meat anymore and wont support fast food restaurants anymore, i don´t buy make up because it´s pointless, make up wont make me the person i really am and most of them test them on animals, if not on USA and Europe anymore, they do it in China, i switched to natural medicine, i walk all i can instead of catching the bus, ( 5 to 7 kilometers a day ) i don´t use the car unless for an emergency and i´m in the process to buy land to make a reforestation project and teach people how important this is, i believe most of my art will have this theme from now on in a way or another, and we just eat what we need, all that pleasure we need to be fighting for is causing too much damage, so yes, perhaps i want to eat this or that or go drive instead of walk, but we cannot afford destroying the only place we can live in, we cannot move to another planet and we are reproducing like rabbits, from now on, the entire world is more important than my desires and my own dumb self. We cannot be that selfish anymore, we are a group of people and we must find the way to get along.
I was even thinking about having another baby but that wont happen. I wont bring someone who might multiply his or her family members from two to 20 in 50 years. All of this might seem dramatic but Drama is what is happening right now, right now, even when we are sitting behind the screen doing our daily stuff as if all those things were happening to someone else in another galaxy, no, this is happening to us, all of us, and it will reach each one of us at some point and i wont sit there with crossed arms waiting for someone to fix everything.
This is scary and we must do something.
We already got the news that there wont be enough rice for my country in three months because all of this is a mess.
fuck, there´s so many things we don´t need, and we might have the right to screw our lives, but not other people´s lives just because we want all this crap to fill our empty spirits, collecting stuff we wont really use, spending money on serious stupid things.
People might say, but we have to move on, life goes on all that crap, yes life goes on but it wont if we keep like this, the warning signs have been here since 1960´s and people just cover their ears and eyes and pretend everything´s alright.
So, start doing something about it or get ready to get screwed. Fight for Life, fight for your home, fight for your planet, how ridicule this is? To fight against ourselves because we are eroding our own land? DO SOMETHING! We cannot just go to sleep at night after watching TV as if nothing is wrong. I don;t want to create a panic attack on someone but perhaps this is what we need so we actually stand up and react, we are numb! And we are Dumb. WAKE UP!
For all the Witches, Wizards out there, start rituals to send our positive energies to the rest of the people and cover Earth with white light.
If you pray pray! pray with love, ask God for an answer, ask God to make people realize what we are doing and give them strength to start doing something at once.
If you Meditate, you know what to do.
Anyway, please CONNECT, let's make Art that promotes a change please, you are all so talented, please use your skills to do something, to promote recycling, nature protection, animal protection, a simple way of living, a less fake image, promote friendship, respect, group support, group work, we are a group, we are not alone here, make art to promote the love for nature and people, to promote alternative ways to get energy, even if it's a small hint on a piece of art, manip or photography, try to share and communicate with people and help make a change in people's way of thinking. Please please please please please, i beg you all, do something please.
You know what we are doing? imagine someone getting beat up and killed just next to your table at a restaurant and you just keep on eating or drinking your coffee. We can't ignore the kind of monsters we are and how we are consuming everything like a virus. So instead of getting angry with all of this and hating people for it, change your mind, change the way you feel, start being positive, and if you are one of those emo kids that has no idea what your future will bring, you have a task if you want to, instead of embracing death thoughts and romanticize pain ans loneliness and self pity, use your influences, your contacts, your music, your fashion and all you can, your emotions too to voice these things out to people on the net instead of writing about how sad all this makes you feel and how you want people to get screwed for once. Be a warrior, not a painful whine that ecoes all over the place please.
People, If you don' t care then please step aside and make room for the ones that truly care, we will change things, we are warriors, we have a voice and we are strong, i don't want my life to be wasted while other's need our help and need information. I don' t have money but i have a computer and internet and i will do all i can to promote a change in people from now on. I do not wish to discuss with people who do not agree with me, i don;t have time to spend on these discussions, i rather talk with people who want to do something. If you have news about alternatives and new discoveries that can help this work and make a change, please share it with me and i will pass it on to everyone i can.
