Fear yet no fear
Comment
Hey Hey!
Just want to add my reflection to this. I don't fear this, I don't fear extinction of anything. I take this with me, all of this that I have known in my life. Even what I feel turned me upside down and inside out, also turned me right side up and deeper within.
I do look at it all with some seriously deep sorrow though and I do wonder about the planet itself. I fear what comes out of me the most when I think about this earth being desolated. Recently in Oregon along the coast a ton of bunnies just showed up in the coastal town of Cannon Beach. They that lived there did not know what to make of it. Then within 6 months or so a very large amount of this rabbit population was poisoned. Murdered. I stood after reading of this happening and I tell you, I almost screamed like I have never heard my internal self scream before. I never scream outwardly, its always from the inside. But I just said breathe, just breathe woman. Then there was that voice that say's to me. How do you feel about this. So as I stood there breathing and shaking from head to toe and I said.. Welp, (insert mass amounts of expletives!!) That is on them.... I know what it is that I do, I pray then they know what they do. Then I remembered this is just a moment in time, this life I'm living, my human experience and although I feel and care deeply about this earth, its inhabitants and this universe were in. I'm still pretty sure it will survive. Humans might not as it is now, all therein might vanish in a flash even. Yet it seems nothing ever really disappears if there is a memory of it.
I like this video here about the shark whisperer. I admire this woman so much knowing what she wanted and went after it and all that therein. Makes me smile! Reminds me of a couple of squirrels a few years ago that I hand fed. Was a first ever for me and it felt just so right. Now those two squirrels have turned into seven this year. Six reds and one cutely but skittish grey. There did not seem to be so many birds around my area in previous years, but now it seems to have turned into a sanctuary of sorts and it amazes me how truly unique each one is. Turning towards nature is the best thing ever and I am so thankful to be alive today to be able to do just that. Its not easy, but I feel that every day I wake up is a gift and I just find that in every way I interact with everything around me leaves me wanting to just do my absolute best. It is not always easy and yet it is all I can try to do. Because when I'm no longer walking, talking and breathing upon this earth I look forward to knowing so much more. I worry though that I look forwards to that maybe just a bit to much. I think to myself how I would like to leave no trace of me behind, but yet I find myself leaving traces of me behind LOL! It is odd being ok with it, yet not quite. Almost like balancing on a see saw.
I wish you all happiness and joy and I tell you what I tell myself. Just keep on goin, you can do this! You got this because this all, this universe has got you as well.
