The way


What is the way of life you seek? We stand at some point of our lives and ask this question. We also ask who's land is this? Some Indians say it is mother earth's land. The Bible says that we were created to care for the land and everything in it. Well you and I both know that we have done a shit job of that. We don't treat the land or what's in it with the care like we should. The way of your beliefs and where you grew up can determine how you take care of things in general. What way is it that you want to go? What really holds you back from your way? If you want to go a different way what is it? A way that sees you doing things to take care of yourself, the land and everything in it. What would you be willing to give up to achieve this? We can really talk a good talk. When it comes down to it you may say things. Like I have responsibilities or I have a family. You may say I can't because I don't have any place to go. All are good responses. Land has become expensive and you have to feed yourself. The way is not easy to take no matter which way you want ro go. What is the right way then? There is not a good answer for this question. The way to a better life for you and the mother Earth. People complain about everything in life and have protested due to that. The way you live in what you wear, eat and drink. This also shows what your current way in life is. You cannot yell and scream at people when you cannot live the way you say is the right way. We as humans always are looking for what we see as the right way to live. I have traveled the world and people in all walks of life want love/closeness to others. Our soul and our being longs to not be alone our whole life. The way we see things can cause us to want things that we do not need. Your walk or way should you choose. Should be one that you can live with everyday. The way of the earth is limited by its resources. The way of you is limited by you. I must say you should always know right from wrong. I believe that our gut has more sense than our minds do. If you should be caught in an issue where you are stuck in a decision. Follow your gut instinct as it is tied to your moral values. So as I said no matter your decision make one in the way that you can live with.
