Harmony with nature may have different meanings, what meaning do you attached to this term? For now, we are talking about a balanced life that is lived with the awareness of the “Law of Cause and Effect”.
Living your life with the understanding and responsibility of taking care of mother earth and treat her with respect. We start by living a health conscious life taking care of our body and our environment.
We are totally responsibility for the world in which we live. It is our home and we are place in charge by God as caretakers. In other words, our physical homes is just a miniature of the larger society that collectively we are all responsible.
It is the selfish actions taking by people that have created most of the problems we face today. It may be individuals, family, organizations or the government, the result will only be bigger and widespread, but the effect is the same.
We each need to examine our attitude towards the environment, our habits and behaviour that can negatively affect the ecological order of our environment.
We need to become more conscious of the effects selfish and unhealthy decisions and behaviour are having on our lives and the environment. People are sick and tired today more than ever. The demanding life that is created by the fast changing modern technological world is causing many to be stressed out, burnt out and falling apart.
The decisions that are made by NGOs and cooperate society are not in the interest of you and me, therefore, we have to take the bull by the horn so to speak and manage our lives.
What can we do to fight back and protect our health and well-being as we live in harmony with nature?
Here are some suggestions: We can go green in a number of many little ways that can make a big difference in the end. We can take it literally and create a greener natural environment around and in the home.
We could go on a harmony with nature campaign to get rid of all the harmful, toxic and dangerous substances in our home.
The majority of children in their homes today, are in serious danger of using or ingesting some toxic substances that are used as normal cleaning or maintaining products.
We should educate ourselves and the entire family about health and safety in the home and the society. We have a responsibility to our family to ensure healthy lives are created and developed.
What about forming community groups to work together in one accord with the same objective? This is important, because if you do your little thing in your corner, and your neighbours are continuing unhealthy behaviours, your are still going to be affected.
Working together is the better way. Much more can be accomplished together than as individuals. As a group, you can invite specialist to address and inform you on how to live in harmony with nature.
They could educate everyone on the connection of how the irresponsible disposing garbage can come back to haunt us.
They could educate the group on the social and environmental pillars of sustainable development and how that can impact the environment in good and bad ways depending on the approach taken.
There are more ways to take responsibility and ensure we are not sucked in by the world’s unhealthy system, but take appropriate action daily and live in harmony with nature.
