but we'll never know it because they are harvesting the sea of its dead before a body ever reaches the beaches. at least some of the
indie sources are
reporting it. and the things that are served up in the
msm -- especially the british, where feelings are coated also with a sense of shame, although bp is largely global instead of merely british -- are starkly different and mind numbing with comforting phrases paid for by...corporate interest.
just so you know. some day i hope we will have a reckoning that shifts the world economy back to more locally and regionally produced goods and services. but it will have been a change purchased at such a price that we have no hope of repaying it or recovering the beauty and wonder of a mostly still-of-God-made world before man plundered and killed.

AMEN, Terry!! I wish this blog were going global! I am so sick at heart and mind for what is taking place at the Gulf. What makes me even more sick is I actually work with a few who want to minimize what is happening. I just want to ask them, "are you blind?" Of course this is the same group of people who think that George W. Bush is from Texas! Hmm, need I say more!
thanks for the affirmation and the truisms--i think a lot of people are hoping that if they ignore this it will take care of itself. day-to-day living does require attention, and 'moving on' ... but when you open your awareness to the physical world from within a spiritual place, it is stunning what the truth feels like. and the truth is, everywhere you look, there is indescribable beauty side-by-side with horrifying destruction. if we could restore the underwater world of colored reefs and vibrant marine life habitat that bp has destroyed, then i suppose we would know what it feels like to be God. failing that experience, we may have to live in an oil slick world, both below the water and above it, because we are all part of the same system. with the onset of tropical storms, i guess we'll find out what that means here in texas and all along the coast...and then everywhere else the wind blows.
