The Immune System

We speak of our “immune system”
and speculate on our fate:
why do we incur diseases?
why do we age – why do we die –
or should I say, why do our bodies die?
Maybe there is no such thing
as “immunity” against death
because life is energy patterns
and somehow we put too much store
in some, ignore others,
or don’t even know what an energy field is.

If we entertain the thought that life is energy
we can reason thus:
beneficial energies give and maintain life,
predatory energies destroy life
for selfish reasons, always selfish reasons.

That man is a predator – the most dangerous –
is not in question anymore.
That he destroys life without thought or qualm
thinking that “might makes right,”
is not in question.

By his passage, life is destroyed.
But not just the life of his victims,
his own need must be included in the pattern.
The field of life generated in the womb
dissipates with the passage of time,
or the intensity of his destruction
and he dies, brutalized by his own brutality,
never realizing how it all comes about –
never knowing that it is he, only he
who causes his own demise.

Bitter reflections, well rendered.

It is indeed high time to increase our awareness of the precious gift of life and habitat.

Thank you.

Love,

a most interesting perspective...

[for me, as a "Universalist", one primary 'philosophic focus' is
certainly the overwhelming significance of energy in the cosmos]

effective 'write'

applause!!

Perhaps we are programed to cause our own demise, after all we do it so well. Love Uriah's comment.
