Life On Earth
How quickly our Sun-driven Time
flows here in Earth Rotations-
minutes, hours, months, years…
We work and play and fill our days.
We mark our days of birth,
even create Traditions to celebrate
or borrow some while making them our own.
From infancy, childhood, adulthood,
and old age, we Humans contribute
in our own ways to Life,
to the Whole of every Age where Life shows up,
to every Stage by our Species’ Nature grown.
We create and destroy Civilizations,
their Structures, Systems, Permutations.
Our Technologies have advanced
like those of many Worlds in Galaxies,
beyond what we now see,
serving Life or Death to be.
We stand on the Brink of Destruction,
of Life or Death, our Species, all Species
on our Home Planet World.
How we act and how we think
contribute to the Whole.
Fear and Hate serve Death and Destruction.
Love of All Life serves Life Itself.
Indifferent Weapons have no Soul.
What is our Life worth here?
What is our Species’ goal?
Are we now less Humane or more
than Puppets of E.T. Wars?

Very nicely written. I have been thinking a lot this month about how they will celebrate or observe Christmas whilst in the trenches being prepared to shell their fellow human beings. I am reminded of the Great War when soldiers from both sides sang carols and played soccer. The generals then forbade the action in future, fearful that they might actually stop killing each other.

Thanks David. It is a complicated problem, Wars. In the Conversations With God book series I recall words to the effect that sometimes we must be what we’re not in order to be what we are (as in Peace and Goodwill to men on Earth). The ceasefire and caroling and game playing you speak of at Christmas in the Great War tells us that the Humans involved were merely following orders in obedience to strings of command that only appeared to lead to other Humans. Consider the possibility that the Gods and Angels of all our Religions were and still are E.T.s at War. Consider that we are merely the Chess Pieces in their Games. Even so, all are from the God Source, the Light and that Light is Pure Love. Some of us remember and many do not as Humans or E.T.s. Peace through Love and Joy this Christmas and New Year David.
