“Humankind has not woven the web of life.
We are but one thread within it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
All things are bound together.
All things connect.”
– Native American Proverb
Chief Seattle, 1854
When will humankind willingly and openly admit verbally and in actions that all of us are just that – HUMANkind?
Not members of separate “races” encouraging division, hate, delusions of grandeur and unworthiness, and war.
When will HUMANkind learn and care that if we all don’t very soon begin and continue to do the right things instead of the immediately gratifying money-making endeavors that the Earth and HUMANkind will suffer and eventually perish?
What a tangled web HUMANkind is weaving in a number of ways. As the proverb says, “Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.” Well, then HUMANkind is about to be all tangled up, and likely sooner than it anticipates.

So true.
But all we are doing is repeating history. When are we gonna learn and move forward??? Hopefully not when it’s too late… We have so much sympathy for the victims of WWII and spend a lot of time in school learning about it. But what are we doing? Continuing to discriminate!
