Putting out the Fires … (06/29/13)
“There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest.” ~ Elie Wiesel
Just as the time to put out a forest fire is BEFORE it starts, the time time to overthrow your tyrant is BEFORE he turns his chair into a throne.
That having been said, if we are too late and we see a forest fire already burning — even if it is a fire that appears to be “too big” to quench, it is Right to do what we can to help put it out anyway …
And that having been said, once we open our eyes to see evil & corruption reigning down upon us from “on high” — even if the dictatorship is strong and resistance seems hopeless, it is Right to find ways to resist it anyway.
May we all have the humility to open our eyes to the ways we are being abused (the NSA in our homes) & manipulated (the GMO’s in our food) & deceived (the TV in our minds) & insulted (the drone war in our world) — and then may we all have the courage to Peace-fully yet Power-fully do whatever we can to be the Change we so desperately need.
Amen …
