Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
One of my favorite songs is the Eagles, The Last Resort. Written and sung by Don Henley, it is a stinging rebuke of our consumer culture. One of my favorite verses,
“Some rich men came and raped the land
Nobody caught 'em
Put up a bunch of ugly boxes
And Jesus people bought 'em”
Greed, and those who preach against greed complicit in it.
You have the power to change your world today, or you can be complicit in the theft of humanity and things that matter.
Change your world means living intentionally. Whatever your situation, you can do that.
It might be becoming a priest.
It might be homesteading.
It might be going back to school.
It might be cutting back your lifestyle so you don’t need two incomes.
It might mean making faith #1 in your life.
But whatever you do, don’t become, or continue to be, one of those Jesus people who preach on Sunday but follow the rich men who rape the land.
Until next time, aim high, spread your wings, and keep your eyes on the things that matter.
