tremors and chills...

A magnitude 8.8 earthquake in Chile?! I feel compassion for the people and animals displaced, injured, or killed by natural disasters. I also feel deep compassion for planet Earth. We humans haven't been very kind and we continue to disregard huge warnings. At a ridiculous rate, we are creating unprecedented damage...killing trees, over-using fossil fuels, disrespecting other forms of life, and creating garbage that will remain on this planet long after we're gone. Earth is bound to react with climate changes and natural disasters.
I wish more people would think of this planet as an actual living creation instead of thinking it's just a place where we happen to live...
It allows, nourishes, sustains, and creates life. Lately, we've been reminded of it's ability to do the opposite.
