Imagine, if you will, a river that flows through your own heart - is it a nurturing river with waters refreshing to your soul? or is it a polluted river with waters stinking up your spirit?
Imagine all our rivers this way, flowing out in time from our hearts of life and living community - are we at peace with these waters that flow or not?
Any river that flows through the life of any of our community, if it doesn't flow through our hearts does not (and will not) answer to our voice.
How then do we say peace to our rivers, to our skies, and to our seas?
Darling Starshine -
A river flows out into the sea, into heaven, and around again - through you and through me.
How do you say peace to a river without setting it free?
And how do you set a river free without letting its waters come full circle...
from the mountains, through the earth, and to the salty sea - where every river ascends again - invisibly - into the heavens - through the clouds...
...and back again from above - from love to love - through you and through me?
How can you say peace to a river if you do not let it run through thy heart...
Can anything be set free without love?
Can any river long endure being chained? It will either go home to heaven, or exact a terrible revenge upon the human communities of our earth.
How do you say peace to a river?

Personal reflection: The pollutants in our rivers are mostly sewage and non-industrial waste. This means, our rivers are mostly in good shape. We do not have to deal with toxic and radioactive pollutants and their expensive clean up costs. All it shall take is OWNERSHIP of our natural bodies of water and waterways.
If we take care of our rivers in this present time and learn to say peace to them - when we become a more mechanized and industrialized Republic, we will grow in a way that is friendly to the vital living ecology that surrounds and sustains our natural human habitat. We will become a more happier people.
