When I think about what we have done
and are doing
to make things worse instead of better,
I have to stop thinking.
Left alone, nature does a fabulous job
of taking care of nature.
Our idea of better is always More Money!
We can make More Money if we do this,
and that,
and that,
and that...
Native Americans got along just fine
for 8,000 years
and then somebody's idea of making More Money
got in the way.
And is still getting in the way.
And what do we do with all that money
that makes it worth all the damage we do
to get it?
Don't go there.
It will only depress you.
And you will have to go sit with nature,
and walk slowly through it,
to get over your depression.
