~ Please Save ~

A quote was mentioned in class where President Jackson was quoted as having a thought on how a conversation with the land would be like, what the dialogue might be like and more importantly, what might the land have to say to us…what does it have to say to us?

I was over at my uncles place a weekend or two ago and noticed that his balcony was literally covered with life. The bees were buzzing, the butterflies were flapping, the squirrels were nibbling, the humming birds were humming, the ants and critters were marching. They were all out there simply because my uncle and his girlfriend were providing them with sustenance and peace. ‘No disturbance to life in this balcony’, I thought to myself…I then turned to my uncle and asked him a question;

“If the squirrels could speak to you, what do you think they would say?”

He looked at me with a smile and said, “Thank you.”

To the best of my understanding regarding the species that are alive and present today, the human being is the only one that has the capacity to preserve and conserve for the better of all, with the consideration of all…that has the capacity to identify a species that is being endangered with extinction only having to put some thought and care to do something about it; preserve and conserve.

When we lose this foundational aspect of being human, we lose ourselves, we lose our identity of being human…when we forget, we are forgotten.

PS Please save the message on the board regarding the fan…running would never be attainable without taking them baby steps :)
