More Positive Possibilities
Just as I was about to drift off to sleep last night, I picked up my phone and typed the following:
“If we don’t live compassionate lives, are we really worth saving. Our demise could be good for this planet, clearing the way for more positive possibilities.”
If you watch dystopic sci-fi and lament the end of mankind caused by an asteroid or similar, this sentence will not resonate with you. For me, these films where humanity is about to be destroyed inspire hope - imagine a future where the most thoughtless monsters don’t control so much of the planet! Imagine a world where rivers, lakes and oceans can clean and renew themselves! Imagine a planet where there is natural balance across species! Imagine a future without the madness that we bring!
Some people “doom scroll” social media and are saddened that we are destroying ourselves. For other sentient beings on this planet that end cannot come soon enough and they will, no doubt, breathe a sigh of relief.
May all beings know peace!
Aroha nui,
