RE: Of Rights and Responsibilities
Thanks for your ‘mindful’ post :)
This is such a vital subject that can never go under appreciated.
Each time we make a decision to step into any endeavour is a great time to quickly survey the ‘field’ of the proposed idea so to speak. Within this though, a free spirited adventurous attitude is wise to project.
The Native Americans used to pick a green and leave 2 more so there was always twice as much left as there was taken. They gave thanks and enjoyed receiving by enjoying in joy these abundant ‘gifts’.
Appreciation & Respect for our ‘Living system or Mother Earth is vital, she is our total support and must be recognised as such ............................ the actions and implications of not doing so are obvious all around us.
Cease watching TEL LIE Vision and turn newspapers etc into ‘good’ news via compost and sheet mulching for future garden gifts.
Life is simple but if one slips into a ‘CONsumer’ mentality then the hard unwise road is chosen.
To be ‘respondable is to be ‘responsive’ in knowing that our actions are mindful ones and that it is ok to re-adjust our settings if signs arise to do so via undesired results or in many instances, greater opportunities that seem to ‘magically’ open up ................................. these are all of our responsiveness and actions thereafter and so on.
Life is fun if it is allowed to breathe free and easy. Guilt & fear are programs we have taken on throughout experience unawares and after a time these programs are triggered via circumstances and over ride our vital need to just see that they are signs of Responsibility offering us gifts and to enlighten us to unneeded BE LIEve systems. BE the LIE no more and truth will always smile.
Wow @harrysummer! Where do I even begin?
Firstly thank you kindly for submitting such a 'mindful' and extensive reply. :c) Oh, and welcome to Steemit!
Many of the things that you mention ring true and I especially enjoyed your sharing the native americans' ways (of which I am mostly ignorant). It does seem that they had a healthy and wise relationship with the Earth.
The puns were sans ational also. ;c)
I admit that I will need to re-read your comment in the morning - as I feel that a fresher mind will garner even more. In short, an awesome comment!
Oh! Since you're new here, here is a post that you will likely find helpful. You are already on the right track. ^_^
