I remember in junior high I would read the National Geographic to look at the stunning pictures of this world - with the waterfalls and the endangered animals.
So have you ever stopped to wonder about Mother Earth?
When there are wars I'm sure she cries towards Heaven in grief, as blood seeps into her skin.
I'm sure she cries to God for strength and mercy. But not for Her; for us.
I'm sure she cries to God for strength and mercy. But not for Her; for us.
What a strong soul she must be. She is humble. She is selfless. What our world should be.
I have seen our world; Her world crash as her heart cracks and she begins to tremble. And I think we make her cry.
I think we make her cry because of our sadness and our pain. Our anger; our rage. Our idolness; our pride.
We've given her scars. We throw garbage and glass all over her face. And she can't do anything about it.
Except by showing us she cares. By showing us that she is still pure, while we are not.
She has no voice but her creations are enough to see she is there. This is Her world more than ours. Yet she gives us sunrises
sunsets
flowers
stars
clouds
oxygen

She gives us memories.
She gives us reasons to smile.
We need to look at this beautiful world around us. Mother Earth is too gentle and too lovely to ignore.
Next time you notice something beautiful in this world, make sure you let Her know she has been seen. That she is appreciated. You can tell Her
Thank you.
Thank you for doing this for me.
For being strong.
And even though she won't respond, she will hear you. And that will be enough.

Oh, this is beautiful. Well done.
Love everything from "When there are wars I'm sure she cries towards Heaven in grief" to "And I think we make her cry. " but my favorite line that really painted a clear image and left me thinking was
ReplyDelete"We've given her scars. We throw garbage and glass all over her face. And she can't do anything about it."
I love this sentence. "She must hate the hate that so many of us carry." It's so true, but there is nothing she can do...
ReplyDeleteGreat use of pictures and the layout of the text.
ReplyDeleteIt's inspiring how you can see the beauty in such a harsh world. We should all try to do the same thing.
