The Earth Shrugs
The tragic earthquake in Haiti serves as a
reminder to me of just how fragile we humans are as we survive on this
tiny blue ball that spins eternally around a medium size star somewhere
in the cosmos. The power of nature is something to behold and capturing
it's sublime sounds are part of our quest here at virtualdreamer.com.
However, Mother Earth is a sleeping giant. Humans
are no more important to it then the birds in the sky, manatees, or palm
trees. When the Earth shrugs people die. A popular
television evangelist here in the USA said a day after the devastating
quake that the Haitian people brought this on themselves. They didn't.
I am sure I have terminated many innocent and unsuspecting
insects
simply by walking out to check the mail. They were of such small scale
comparatively that I didn't know I was sending them on their spiritual
journey. However I do know with utmost certainty that they did not
bring their demise on themselves. I did not mean to do it but...
Sometimes things just happen.
