Are we still living in the Age of the Aquarius? I don't know. I only know we are definitely deep in the heartland of computers and tumbling towards the edge of chaos as far as winds, heat and water are concerned.
I will never thought I will live to see the day when our planet, the third rock from the sun, goes into thoes of finding climatic balance from month to month. Chunks of mountains come sliding down on unsuspecting villages and its sleeping residents. Giant walls of water rising from the ocean to reclaim land that it called its own millions of years ago.
In the event of this phenomenon, hundreds of thousands of human lives are washed away along with the debris in the horrible wake of a tsunami.
Over in the East, near the Equator, the sun scorches the earth. The wind seems to have gone into hibernation and the land becomes well cooked like a chicken in an oven.
What's troubling Mother Earth? Even the scientists are puzzled. They can only predict to some degree of accuracy where the hurricanes and typhoons will turn when they appear on satellite images.
Are all these natural phenomena? Ask God, say some people. Tell God, say others who swear by piety and all that's holy. But earth continues to spin out of control. Perhaps this is a tad exaggerating. However, there's no denying that with Nature taking its own revenge on people who have cursed the earth with their own insensitivity and recklessness.
There's definitely turbulence in the air. Troubled waters are flowing under many bridges. Men in general are beginning to stir with a concern that has laid dormant for generations. From Iceland to Australia, the ground on which men has built his home, has begin to stir.
What are these signs? What are they telling us? Climatologists, even if they really know what's going on, are not telling. But it is undeniable that something is amiss with Earth.
If Mother Nature wreaks havoc on the ground where she has many subjects, noe of us, including the animals, will have anywhere to hide. It is be vicious and swift for some. Others will have used their wits to survive a troubled earth.
The immortal line emerges: Are we living in the last days? Sure, some of the troubling signs are there but are they also should be accepted as gospel truth. The consolation is that man's will to live is the strongest at history's most crucial hour.
We will probably survive some major holocaust but how long can we hold up. The answers and solutions to earth's woes do not lie with the scientists and politicians but in the hearts of every individuals. We will have to change our mindsets if we want to rechange te world.
If we lost one-third of earth's populations in some global catalsymic upheavel, the history of mankind will careen off into another direction. We will have to take stock of our mistakes. For example, the damage done by man to Mother Earth.
There's really no point in debating which country is the bigger culprit when all you have are bodies to bury on the day after.
Perhaps I am too pessimistic but like many others around the world, I too am not blind to the danger signs blatantly exhibited by Earth and the solar system. The question is: are we too late?
