Through the ember, slowly fading in the light of the flame that is not quite there, in the darkness of night under the full moon casting a hazy glow through moisture in the air, to the sound of a bell ringing from farther and farther and farther away, for as long as hearing lingers, like the breeze through the towers of leaves in our forest. Blue sphere of Light, spinning in her orbit, so far away in time and space from her sister, while now in the intuitive warp of co-existence, and the universal hologram, are you here? Each of us plays one part and together we have our collective meaning, our planet Blue. our watery planet, turning through her seasons for as long as the ocean churns, turning deserts into marshes and continents into islands. Day by day, step by step, Blue turns through day and night, her biosphere teeming with life of miraculous diversity. The path of Life has been turned upon, and our biosphere is in decline. The spectrum of life on planet Blue will be sorely depleted. Indeed, she was a shining jewel in the intergalactic cosmos, but there lived within her heart a fatal flaw that was not overcome by the driving force for Life which brought her to her glory. Or shall this fatal flaw, apparently on the threshold of domination, be turned around into its own self-destruction without completely destroying our home, so that we may continue to speak with a clear voice to the other side of the universe. The great war is upon us. Does anyone see peace on the horizon? How far along? Through what mechanism? Economic conditions will become increasingly alienating. Lots and lots of people have no idea about what to do when faced with serious budget adjustments. The call to order will become of paramount importance. The call of resistance in the name of free will shall become equally important. The future of our planet is becoming increasingly on-the-line. Many different levels of awareness are out there, to be sure, and the more the essential idea gets around, and the sooner, the better chance there will be for life to continue on planet Blue. February 16, 2006 Letter from planet Blue, through the candle flame. Well, my children, I will be sad to see you go. It is the destiny of the chaff to burn, and for the seeds of universal consciousness to germinate. This has been a glorious flourishing of the life force, and the cadence of the song of our planet Blue has been heard in far away places. They hear it now. Now will begin the remission, and it is not entirely clear how deeply the knife will cut into our spiraling chain, nor how the imminent realignment of climatic patterns will affect our behaviors, we children of Blue. One day after another, with every breath we take, coursing through our veins, the poisons are now ours forever. Planet Blue can only wonder at the folly of her children. Those in tune with her heart can hope to carry on through the dark night into the light of Dawn. Feb 17, 2006
