'Living an alternative life' - a rather popular preface to the world of organic and healthy living. Understandably, 21st century's ''first-world'' living kinda dictates the promotion of a wealthy and debauched way of life. As hyper-sensationalised as rap videos appear to be, there is however a truth behind this world of 'want' that young people are so hungry for. However, the face of hapless 60+ rock stars such as the like of Ozzy Osbourne, Mick Jagger is anything to go by - living the Sex, Drugs and Rock 'n' Roll life does leave with a haggered pre-expiration date look.
Imagine, if we are so cruel to our selves - to simply achieve short-lasting enjoyment then yes imagine tirad of victims that have crossed our paths.
FACT:
The world, our home - the largest and perpetual abuse victim. With a constantly changing environment, its inhabitants are so desperate to achieve a consensus in protecting the most violated living thing on earth. But where does this burderning responsiblilty originate from? From two quarters i feel, the ''religious space'' and the ''ethically conscious space'' - however thats not saying the two are mutually exclusive, the two are extricably linked.
So to find peace within ourselves and with the world around us, is a relationship so desperate to be translated into action. This 'secret' of an alternative life does add to its enigama and unfortuantly to its delay of action. We have become so fearful of change... and that ofcourse be GOOD change that we are willing remain blinded by our hunger and desire to satisfy the quick-tempered ego. Yet, we we delay and hinder ourselves from the greater goodness that resides in Love. Love enables us to do good and be good - all the will live in tranquility, something often described as utopia/heaven. But this is far from other-worldly - its acheievable and imagineable. So why do we fail to but the hard graft into this work?
Our distance from our Beloved Creator.
Lets learn to stop polluting anthropgenically...and start to produce a different kind of scent. A scent that can inspire, motivate us...and silence that quick-tempered ego that really is having alot of fun.
Good luck 2013, may Love be realised.
