I was lucky enough to pick up the April, 2010 issue of National Geographic. The focus of the issue was water.
There were a couple of things that really stuck in my mind.
First, the statement that the weight of China's 3 Gorges Dam will tilt, by nearly an inch, the earth's axis. Our earth has developed life over billions and billons of centuries and this life is now in jeopardy because of the smallest changes we humans have made, whether it is GMOs, pesticides, changing the axis, etc, etc, etc.
Second, along the line of the first, I was shocked about the depletion of the aquifer in the Kansas area. According to NG, the aquifer that was 100 feet below the surface in 1950 was in 2007 over 200 feet below the surface. The explosion of wells for agriculture has been directly blamed. Can you imagine what is going on in California today? How can a community that relies on ground water in the central valley of California survive?
Of course, now we have the heating of the lakes that many communities use, as well as the runoff of factory lifestock operations, all of which result in algae growth.
In its own way, is the earth reclaiming itself through these disasters WE have created?

Sure, have thought of it. Learned from what I see, experience. Realize it's not the healthy road and hope to be worthy to be entrusted with the care of another perfect world after I exist this flesh and if I am accepted in the garden with no thorn or thistles and never allow it to come forth again. Cause who wants to live through continuous reruns of this as if stuck in the film groundhog day?
Not I.
Hate what is occurring, love the goodness of the earth and had a experience of it that was leaving already when I came and it does not seem it's gonna get better here. Still I do the best I can which is not much, that I understand is the lesson that matters.

I liked it anyway!
Although I believe prayer changes things....through love and faithfulness sin(even ignorant sin) is atoned for.

I never saw you penned this till now so I was a bit harsh later I think so apologies...yet as you can see it was not what I was intending to relate at all and maybe it was vice versa. This form of communication if far from perfecta as am I.

granny, that is something I have though of too, things I don't realize yet and ask to, really want to know and things I have learned are not so good to do at all. I did many things for not realizing, then when I did, I try to do best I can not to and if I can't change it I have hope it will change and regret my part in whatever wrong it is.
