A large part of my individual path involves the idea of reincarnation because to me, reincarnation can explain everything and if it can’t, it can definitely give food for thought pertaining to any particular issue.
With regards to the environment, reincarnation strongly kicked in when I began to consider the idea of coming back to this world again and if so what kind of world would it be? I thought to myself as I spoke to my inner god/goddess, “If I am correct, I want a world to come back too and not just any world, a world where things are better than they are now, not worse.”
From such ideas came actions such as writing to political figures about my concerns regarding the world around me. These actions I found different because although I had written to political leaders in the past, by calling on my inner god/goddess, I found that my words had more substance. One such letter of mine was written and sent too many senators of these United States in 2008 and reads as follows:
February 18, 2008
Dear Senator,
Topics of discussion:
1.) Environment
2.) Energy Recourses
3.) Gun Control
4.) Religion/War/Mentally Ill
5.) Capitalism
We as citizens of The United States of America, as one nation, have become the “Dumb Giant”. You as well as I continue to let ignorance dominate our lives as we as a nation continue to bully around other nations and or brown nose them so that we can strip them of precious resources and money when we could be doing so much more in our own country to help ourselves. Instead of believing in ourselves as a nation which we have completely lost sight of, we continue to destroy Mother Earth as well as ourselves in the names of Capitalism, Greed, and Stupidity.
I am sending this E-mail to you as well as to others on Capital Hill. I will also cc this e-mail to other government officials in other countries because I am sick of us as a nation, not working together with other nations to better the lives of everyone and everything. I have that right.
We as a nation continue to put on airs that we know it all; fooling our own people into thinking we are the best nation in the world. You know as well as I that there are other nations out there that are just as wonderful as our own country if not better in many ways.
1.) We continue to destroy the environment in so many ways:
a.) Aside from greed, please tell me why we as a nation can’t build on land already destroyed by construction, thus tearing down old unused buildings and building on top of the land already in use instead of finding land not yet built upon, destroying it along with everything on it, so that we can build buildings, only to leave them in a matter of years before we repeat the process and killing life along the way?
I.) Have you ever taken a moment out to put yourself in the place of a squirrel or bird and watch your home destroyed, killing you along with the children/family you hold so dear?
II.) Have you ever considered the owl that sits on top of the street light wire that runs across the new road its home once stood on, looking for food, starving and knowing its next meal may be its last?
III.) Home Land Security? Did we as a nation need to go so far as to let whales and dolphins commit suicide, because they can’t stand the sound waves of navel ships our president has given authorization to use to protect the seas, only to ask by ways of the media in the future, where did all the whales and dolphins go?
1.) Note to self, should we continue to do such things as mentioned above, please recognize that we are nothing more than the most dominant parasite this world has ever known.
2.) Google’s definition: parasite-an animal or plant that lives in or on a host (another animal or plant); it obtains nourishment from the host without benefiting or killing the host.
2.) As I drove on the beltway the other day, I noticed something that sickened me. You see, between both sides of the beltway lay miles upon miles of land to divide/define which way the traffic was moving and it wasn’t being used to assist us as a nation to better our lives.
a.) Tell me why such areas of land that are being unused and stretch for miles on end aren’t being installed with solar panels. By putting rows upon rows of poles with solar panels on them, we could very possibly cut down on the use of fossil fuels to generate electricity, thus save the environment from being destroyed in search for such things as oil and coal.
b.) Why is it we can build oil rigs off the coast that are virtually impossible to destroy, even by hurricanes but we can’t build something so impossible to destroy that could harness those hurricane force winds instead?
I.) By doing so, we could limit oil spills thus limit destroying the environment even more so than we already are.
II.) By doing so, we could place such indestructible wind catchers thorough out “Tornado Alley” here in our own country.
3.) Get past the amendment of “baring arms” bologna.
a.) Tell me how a government official can sleep at night knowing they were bought by the NRA and allowed another person to die on there streets last night?
b.) Many politicians run there mouths about being a devote Christian but how Christian is it to allow one’s brother to be killed by a gun just moments ago? Is that government official really playing the role of being, “My Brothers Keeper”? I think not.
4.) Please note that numbers three and four are very much tied into one another for the following reasons. After seeing such destruction on high school and university campuses over the past ten years, we press upon our children not to discriminate against others. We tell our children not to be apart of cliques and to treat others with respect yet many of us follow a particular religion, what ever that religion is, and tell our children our religion is the only religion that is correct. Isn’t that being discriminatory? How will our children learn what it is we are trying to teach them when we can’t even follow the rules we tell them to live by.
a.) Children mock one another at school, pushing, and fighting because the other person is wrong.
b.) We as a nation invade another country because we don’t think they are doing things correctly.
5.) We as a nation are in so much debt to ourselves as well as to others we can no longer afford to be capitalists. It is time for us as a nation to look into how other countries are doing things so that we can improve our living conditions and be not so dependent on others. We as a nation can then, over time, find it in our own hearts to recognize that we should eat crow, swallow our own pride, and apologize to other nations for the havoc we have imposed on them. And with God’s grace, maybe even have enough time to apologize to Mother Earth and the rest of he inhabitants for the massacre we have bestowed upon them.
Thank you for your time,
Sincerely,
While composing this letter I realized that although my words may never be taken seriously, to me, I had done my part to stand up for the environment, my country, and most importantly, myself. I knew that by walking the walk via the keys of my computer keyboard, I could hold my personal spirit high and know that in the face of Karma, I tried to be a voice for that which had no voice (the environment) and for those whom might have similar views that for what ever reason may have been afraid or just to busy to speak up.
In writing such letters, I found inspiration as my own muse with my god and my goddess within me and began to think beyond the vale or if anything, reach out to it. Ideas continued to flood my mind with possibilities of how to better my surroundings as well as to assist others I shared my world with.
In both 2009 and 2010 I composed one letter that I felt if anything could inspire thought to those whom might read it, should they do so/should destiny wish it to be so, and made another attempt at saving the world/my world.
I sent the following letter individually to Mrs. Michele Obama, Vice President Biden, and General Electric. I also sent this letter to the President of the United States . It read:
“I would like to share an idea with you that I think may bring many jobs to our economy as well as free us from the addiction of foreign oil. I ask that you please consider the following:
As I drive up and down East Village Avenue to my home each day, I can’t help but notice the huge amount of land between the endless pairs of power lines not being used.
I am wondering if such space couldn’t be used to create an endless amount of energy by placing row’s upon row’s of solar panels in that space thus providing jobs, maximizing the use of the land, and creating new ways and new ideas to use such energy powered by something as simple as the sun.
I think that if this were to happen we could protect the future of our environment and free us from our addiction to foreign oil.
Thank you for your time concerning this matter.
Blessed Be,
