Dreaming a nightmare...

 
 
So far, over the 25 years I've been alive, I've had sooo many amazing dreams while I was asleep, that I couldn't remember. The perfect day, winning the lottery, the perfect date, the perfect wet... you know! Just glimpses unfortunately of what was probably an amazing dream! For some reason I am 90% of the time unable to recall my dreams, call it a short attention span or just mere luck!
Dreaming up a nightmare would be the last on my wish list... I'd rather wish not to dream up such a thing... The world we live in, is starting to become more and more different, it is starting to shape in to something I cannot understand.
 
When I was growing up, I was extremely lost, call it puberty! hormones! the whole shebang! But after med school and tons of volunteering etc... The world started to get extremely challenging which I kinda liked. But now, as I'm shown my way in to a world that looks upon our universe in a much different light. I am afraid! WHY? Because of the way human existence is starting to shape itself... Another species goes extinct and what do we do? We keep going... moving on... like nothing every happened... Who grieves for the fallen if they are not as humane as we are? The question is... Are we then humane?
 
Dreams? Nightmares... The world keeps turning inevitably out of our control, the powers that state they are in control have absolutely no control of it. They simple try as they must to control it, but with such demand and need and growing populations we are nearing an edge... to a cliff... that keeps growing in height... higher and higher... They do say "The higher you climb... the harder you fall..." We have not fallen yet...
 
Sigh... What am I to do?? One man?
 
Well I think I have hope... Which is why I wrote this post... I have hope that those who read this post would reflect on their yesterdays and change their tomorrows. We cannot live the way we live and hope that our children will not meet the consequences. It doesn't work that way.... Father your courage and raise your voice, for if you do not... Mother nature will surely rest... She will rest in peace forever...
 
Start with a few 50 steps... But there will always be more things to do!
