What's next? Swarms of locusts?
The balance of things seems to be shifting, doesn't it?


Balances of Power...

Deepening Moral, Ethical and Religious Divisions...

The Rotation of the Earth...

Extreme Weather Patterns...

Catostrophic World Events...

Inarguably innocent, good people dying...

Some might say the battle between 'Good' and 'Evil' (although we may disagree on which is which) has heated up.

Humans have become so out of touch with nature I wonder if we could even sense a world-altering shift coming?

Keep you eyes on the animals.

I post this after a fascinating dream I had last night.

Buddha, Allah, God and Mother Nature melted into one being and all of the greedy people were sucked into the earth with their belongings.

It was wild!

No, I was not chemically 'influenced' and I am not a religious person, although I am definitely spiritual and very connected to nature.

...now I have to go and write all of this down, but I wanted to share it with you all first --at the risk of sounding like a nutcase!

You never know when you might have to fry up some locusts in a pinch.

7. I believe you would like the book
"The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight" by Thom Hartmann. It's very good.

Sounds like a rockin' dream!

10. the Rocky Mountain locust is extinct
It was a Passenger Pigeon-like event.

Billions of creatures that darkened the sky. And then one day there were none.
