A second thought: Or never a second thought

in #anarchy8 years ago (edited)

A peaceful walk through the woods has left me in a reflective place. I was headed out to make my vlog, but it turned into so much more.

As I walked slowly and my barefeet sank into the cool wet forest floor, something caught my eye.

There was something shiny in the leaves, it was a memory. It turned out it was a decision made many years ago with no regard of an outcome.

The choice was made in the blink of an eye, and possibly a decision that was reinforced by culture. A low expectation of personal responsibility or how things effect others.

As we tear through our turn on this earth, are we thinking about how our decisions might impact others. There are major things happening in our world today that will live on forever.

Our love for human survival has put us in a position of responsibilty. If we are going to survive as a people, can we do it like this.

"We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." - Albert Einstein

As I continued down this thread of thought I began to think about how much impact my life has on others.

Are my daily decisions going to effect another person years from now. Will they be impacted, not by my words, but my decisions.

I am a believer that the idea of good or bad are in the mind of the individual.

We cannot stop others from doing what we consider to be bad. We can only show others what we consider to be good.

Cultures are steered by what the masses believe. Can we impact the entire state of the world now, and in the future, by making one decision.

I hope you find encouragement in my words. Until I am able to produce everything I need without the use of machines and electricity, I will always have another decision to make. Be well! 🙃

Sort:  

Keep finding stuff like that laying around might need to get some moccasins;)

Or make some?! I know you have a huge hunk of leather laying around... ;)

Haha right! Where I was, this wasn't supposed to be.

Wow !!
amazing sentence.....
"A second thought: Or never a second thought "

Bare feet?! :O

Yep, as often as I can!

wonderful post sir, thanks for share.

Watch your poor feet, Yeti! That stuff could really cause some damage.

That is for sure!

It scares me a bit that you were not wearing shoes with this stuff lying around and saddens me that it was there in the first place.

Yeah, I usually wear shoes until I get into the woods and then take them off. I have never found trash that far in. Its terrible.

Worthy sentiment. Every thing we do, even the breath we take, influences the environment. Just followed you. Looking for more good thoughts.

Thank you! Welcome.

Terima kasih. Sampah itu mengerikan. Saya harus sangat berhati-hati. Dengan baik!
