We walk through life, blind, knowingly, and not; willingly, and not. We see the world, and let it pass, unremarked, taken as a fixture of eternity, for the most part. This, is not the truth. The world is not a thing of diamond, not a thing of light, or of spirit, wholly, although it is all of these things, in part; It is also an earthen world, a fragile world, a beautiful world, and one which we are quickly stripping of its beauty, and its life. Our world is dying, and we are the cause. But, there is yet hope. There is still time, to turn back, to leave behind us, all this pain, and desecration, and soul-wide apathy; there is yet time, but not for much longer. Therefore, I charge you, all who read these words, and feel them within your heart, change. Now. Revitalize your lives, revitalize the world. Every action has significance; think, before you act. I charge you, do this thing, for yourselves, and for the world; and I swear to you, before God, and all the infinite immutable and yet ever-changing light, of eternity, there is yet time. There is still hope. the world will change, and flower, for all of time. I promise you. It will.

The Call; Mission of our Time
We walk through life, blind, knowingly, and not; willingly, and not. We see the world, and let it pass, unremarked, taken as a fixture of eternity, for the most part. This, is not the truth. The world is not a thing of diamond, not a thing of light, or of spirit, wholly, although it is all of these things, in part; It is also an earthen world, a fragile world, a beautiful world, and one which we are quickly stripping of its beauty, and its life. Our world is dying, and we are the cause. But, there is yet hope. There is still time, to turn back, to leave behind us, all this pain, and desecration, and soul-wide apathy; there is yet time, but not for much longer. Therefore, I charge you, all who read these words, and feel them within your heart, change. Now. Revitalize your lives, revitalize the world. Every action has significance; think, before you act. I charge you, do this thing, for yourselves, and for the world; and I swear to you, before God, and all the infinite immutable and yet ever-changing light, of eternity, there is yet time. There is still hope. the world will change, and flower, for all of time. I promise you. It will.
The world is a thing of beauty. will you help to preserve this light, to heal this suffering, inflicted in the greed of our race? Or will you not. There is no other option.
