how did the world end up this way

sometimes the concern for the world runs deep. the greed and the lack of awareness concerns me a whole awful lot. the lack of concern most people have for the rest of the world concerns me. the overwhelming feeling that i am not doing enough. that i need to be doing MORE to shift us to a new consciousness. even the little steps feel like too much. and so it goes...

today i am feeling sensitive. i am feeling the pain we cause in the world. i am concerned about how we are affecting natural systems upon which we depend. i am concerned that we are not looking the problems in the eye. i am scared for our future and i don't know how to live or what to do. i don't want to be a part of the mess but i am. how do i be a part of the solution?
