Restart
The Great Oil Spill is stopped, but the sea is still pretty oily. Are the whales safe? How about those coral reefs?
I saw a sail boat for sale a while back and it got me thinking. What it would be like to sail the seas today in a small ship, like Jack London on the Snark? Maybe such a sail to Australia is in my future.
Change continues. Two years ago we were celebrating Obama’s election; two years later some other people are celebrating Boehner’s ascension to power: no one is publicly celebrating the current progress of the human race.
We’ve lost a sense of unity, of common purpose, of mission. Are we here for selfish ends? Are we here for each other? Do we make up what we’re here for as we go along? Are we here for a purpose that calls upon us to eliminate or dehumanize anyone who does not share our purpose?
Time to restart. Come on people now. Everybody get together, try to love one another, right now.
Or, maybe just plan a sailing trip that will take several months, if not years.
