Woke up to a new world

We fell asleep in one world and woke up in another

Suddenly Disney is out of magic,
Paris is no longer romantic,
New York doesn’t stand up anymore,
The Chinese wall is no longer a fortress,
and Mecca is empty.

Hugs & kisses suddenly become weapons,
and not visiting parents and friends
becomes an act of love.

Suddenly you realize that power ,beauty
& money are worthless ,and can’t get you
The oxygen you’re fighting for .

The world continues its life and it is beautiful
It only puts humans in cages.
I think it’s sending us a message.

“You are not necessary .
The air, earth ,water and sky
without you are fine .
When you come back ,
remember that you are my guest.
Not my masters

I read this and it tore at my heart string
I wanted to share this. Author is unknown

The "You are not necessary" paragraph has actually been used in a Facebook post and I agree - it definitely leaves an impression. For it is true - the Earth existed far before Man came and if Man left - it would be better off. This has been an eye opener for many I hope and I pray and can only hope this will change things. Time will tell. You stay safe my friend for that new grandbaby!! purple heart

A lot of truth in this. Humankind has been so dependent on expecting no changes unless it is in their favor. Just wait until water is scarce. You will see the real animals inside. Great to see you Laura, take care.

Great share Laura,
The Covid restrictions have just been lifted in Ireland this weekend...
We all feel like we've woken to a new world.
I hope the Government haven't done it too soon.
Take care Laura.

Regards Mick.
