We are stewards
We do not own this planet, what makes us think we do? We have no right to be here. Nothing belongs to us. We are stewards of the earth - just taking care of it for a while and ensuring that our descendents will also be able to enjoy the fruits that it bears, the birds of the air, the fishes in the sea.
Why do we behave like the world owes us our living, that we are rulers of the house and we can do what we like? Why do we behave like hooligans that have barged in on a beautiful castle only to loot the jewels, destroy the furniture and wreck the curtains? Do we even deserve to be invited into this heaven?
Let's stop living our disposable lifestyle. Let's start to think long-term and reusability. Reduce waste and recycle.
The things that irk me: disposable cups that people grab, fill with water, gulp down, and then throw. In 5 seconds flat.
Hand towels in the washroom that they tear, wipe one hand, tear another, wipe the other hand, tear another, wipe their face. Don't we see what we are doing? Don't we see the bigger picture? It's doesn't just have to be about me, does it?
How do we ensure that future generations will have a future? Can we assume that things will work out? Should we close our eyes and hope for the best? Let's do our little bit and try to be a steward of the earth.
