Considering the horrific environmental disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, I thought that Sha'Tara's words were rather appropriate...

Sense of Purpose

[thoughts from      ~burning woman~      by Sha'Tara]


The question:

How does life deal with a part of itself that fails to discover, or subsequently loses, its sense of purpose?

The answer:

It finds some way to remove it from the equation.

The example:

Behold the dinosaurs and the duckbilled platypus.

The conclusion:

Earthians beware: your days, as a species and as individuals, are severely numbered

Reg,

I guess I read your articles backward, but this seems to have the same theme as the one you wrote later. And its still very good and thought provoking

Hugs,

Regis,

I agree 100% with this short and sweet article. Call me crazy, but I think we will not be around after 2012. Just my thoughts. Too many natural disasters, honestly too many crazy things are going on, perhaps God is saying enough is enough. We shall see.
