In the beginning, man lived as one with the nature
There was no conflict, no war between the two
Then when humans got greedy they started ravaging
The environment to earn riches, destroying the nature
Now the developed world is starting another love affair with nature
Luring it into a false sense of security, but always busy
Cutting its roots, stealing its treasures, and still harming it

If only humans returned to their true love of nature
The genuine love that would mean making sacrifices for it
Maybe man and nature can once again live in harmony
And our beloved, one and only home can be saved

Yes! Amen to that. We are the caretakers, perhaps we need to remember that role and return to it. Well said Sadje.

Indigenous people lived in harmony with nature, realizing they were part of the natural world, not separate from it. We need to embrace that philosophy again.

I think it’s possible that the destruction of the Amazon rainforest — turning it into a desert — may be the beginning of the end. I do not think this world will survive without those trees. And the stupidity of it, the madness of it. The land he torched is WORTHLESS as farmland and the river is turning to mud.

I agree with others. Such a powerful post Sadje. We really do need to waken up and be accountable for our actions and stop paying lip service to the impacts of our selfish and careless actions.

Oh how I wish. I would love to time travel, to see what the future holds. I donβt think I will see any real changes in my life time. Humans are too greedy. They want just for themselves and donβt think about the other creatures we share this planet with. Every other creature has a reason for being here and we need to keep that balance.

Absolutely right Paula. We all have our place in the greater scheme of things and usurping the rights of other creatures will get us into big trouble.
