No one listened to that wise old Indian at the time. Maybe some folks are starting to listen now. Anyway, there are glimmers of hope. We are clever monkeys. Maybe self-preservation will motivate us to live more responsibly? I'm not holding my breath on that one.
Major changes need to happen in a short amount of time.
The Lovely Carla is hoping for some great transformative consciousness that will propel us to a new era. I like the vision, but I'm unsure of how you get from here to there. Maybe we can somehow channel the greed, the selfishness, the ego - to trick ourselves into doing the right thing in spite of ourselves?
Anyway, it was a necessary trip. No one man or woman is gonna solve this one. It's gonna take a lot of really smart people to kind of carry this through, and then everyone else is gonna have to jump onboard to try to make this work.
Otherwise, I guess our legacy will be that we overran the place, trashed it, killed everything on it, and split. Not very inspiring.
