Why I am Amazed

Why am I Amazed? It all has to do with the beauty of our planet. When I see nature and enjoy her peace and beauty I feel replenished. I need the time to be outside, to see natural beauty and to hear the birds sing. Our planet and the life here is so intertwined and dependent on each other. Rock, cycle, water cycle, life cycle and food chain are all marvelously designed to the last intricate detail. It is not an accident but a great plan. In our universe there are other places that are home to life. I do not doubt this at all. They may not be near to our solar system but they are out there somewhere learning just as we are.

What I find difficult to accept is that we humans have taken our home for granted. We have spent the last few centuries polluting, and destroying our planet. We have made species become extinct in a few short decades, polluted nearly every water source, filled our lands and oceans with radiation, wiped out tribes of people, filled our air with smog and caused global weather change.

We must stop the direction in which we are heading before our planet becomes barren and lifeless. We must change how we treat each other before we destroy ourselves. We must go within ourselves and seek God and healing. We cannot make it without our creator and healer.
