This Is My World...

We have control in this matter

2009-07-02T10:18:00.000-07:00

What happens when the Earth's aquifers are dried up and we have no water? Our rivers and lakes will dry up and no more water will run into the seas, the seas will then dry up and we will have no more oceans. What happens when we cut down all our trees? What happens when we mine our minerals to depletion? What will we survive on? We are consuming far too much, too quickly, 20% of the world's population is consuming 80% of our resources. The last 40 years, just 40 years, we have consumed our planet almost to death. We are destroying ourselves along with every other living creature/plant and we don't care it seems. And it's not that we are not knowledgeable of our situation either, environmentalist for decades have been, constantly, warning us that we are destroying our planet, but the drilling, mining, and wasting keep happening. We cannot live without our Earth, no matter how much power/money we have, when we use up all we have we will not be able to make anymore because we did not create it in the first place.

All other creatures of this planet have lived harmoniously and symbiotically with each other and the Earth for millions of years, we come along and destroy it within a couple hundred thousand. We were lucky enough to be given what we have, we are the leaders of innovation and the dominant species on this planet and have the to capabilities to keep the Earth thriving forever, but we choose to meet supply and demand instead, when it was us who created the demand in the first place. We do not need to mine our Earth for minerals, we can find them in everyday foods we eat. We don't need to cut down anymore trees for paper, we have a surplus of paper already and we can recycle all of it. Deforestation is one of the biggest down falls of humanity, trees recycle our oxygen, without them we will not have fresh air to breath. Trees also keep our top soil from eroding away, how will we grow crops without soil? In fact how will any plant life survive without soil? Our Earth is going to become a barren desert wasteland. Rainforests are being cut down on a mass scale for cattle ranches to meet the ever rising demand for meat, meat! We are destroying an essential key to our survival for something unnecessary, especially at the rate livestock is being produced, it's outrageous. Rainforest inhabitants are also being forced out of there homes, this includes people as well as animals. Human families live outside the fences of these cattle ranches in palm frawn roof shacks because they have no other place to go, their once lush and thriving, centuries old, community has now diminished into nothing but treeless land for cattle to live.

Civilizations in the desert are running out of water, they have a finite supply of water that has been diminished almost completely. Their main water source is the fossil water that was collected in an underground aquifer during the time when it use to rain there, now that there is no more rain, there is nothing to replenish the water. Once that water is gone they will have no way of receiving water, except through outside sources. Water shortages are not just happening in the desert, it's happening all over the world, 1.2 billion people are without clean water sources for their daily needs, this number is just going to get bigger if we don't do something. America is on this list of water shortages too. The rivers, lakes, and seas are drying up and the coral reefs of our oceans are being destroyed, the reefs are the livelihood of ocean dwelling life, they are like the rainforests of the ocean world. Without the reefs the oceans will die. Without the oceans we will die. Melting polar icecaps, glaciers, and basically any and all large masses of ice are flowing an ever-advancing amount of fresh water right into the oceans, desalinizing them and creating non-livable conditions for saltwater life. The desalinization also cause current sifts, which causes erratic and devastating weather conditions for us. We are on a direct course to eminent catastrophe and we are doing nothing about it.

What I am going to say next might offend some people, but it is the truth, especially in America, but I live here so it's where I see it the most. We ignoring our environment to worship god. We are so worried about the end of times brought upon us by a divine deity that we are completely disregarding the fact that the end times are close, but it's not being brought about by any god, but by humanity. We have control in this matter, is what I'm getting at, we go about our lives praying to god so we don't go to hell when he decides to end the world, but we do nothing about helping our world's environment. Get up off your knees and go plant a tree. I believe god will appreciate that more, then a prayer and so would our children, our Earth, and our future. Peace.

Cow's Milk: natures way of feeding baby cows

2009-06-29T12:47:00.000-07:00

Milk is not a pure and perfect food as they claim it is, in fact it is just plain bad for you, especially in the large amounts we consume on a daily basis. Humans are the only mammal in the animal kingdom that still consumes milk after weaning from mom's breast milk. Cow's milk may contain vitamins that our bodies need, but it is specifically designed for a calf's development as our mother's milk is for us. Most of us switch from mom to cow milk immediately after weaning to make sure we are nourished enough, but what you may not know is that those vitamins we need can also be found in a bunch of other food sources that we commonly consume on a daily basis. Vitamins A, D, E, and K are found in a variety of vegetables, fruits, and fish, calcium is found in oranges, greens and many more food items, I encourage you to do some research of your own to discover what food products contain what vitamins and minerals, you will be surprised.

This is some what gross so prepare yourself, all milk contains blood and pus from the cow and all the hormones, pesticides and antibiotics that the cow gets injected with, and whatever else the cow consumes. The most talked about hormone is BGH (Bovine Growth Hormone), this hormone is given to cows to make them able to produce more milk then their body actually could/should, but the hormone doesn't just stay in the cow's body, it comes out in it's milk and we drink it. The BGH contaminated milk has caused a number of health problems including lymphoma cancer. This type of cancer has gone up 37% since the introduction of BGH into milk, you can read this article for more info if you'd like. So we are putting something into our body that was not made for us and can harm us, for no reason at all! And just so you don't feel too bad, we are tricked into believing milk does a body good by the very people that we are suppose to look to for our proper dietary recommendations. Your local nutritionist is most likely a better person to seek advice from about what to eat for your health. The new food pyramid reflects such a betrayal, the new design makes cow's milk look even more important to our diet then fruits or vegetables, the amount of milk you are suppose to intake remained the same, but the section is a lot larger on the new pyramid and the fruits and vegetables sections got downsized, making it look like milk should be the second largest nutritional contributor to our daily diet. Check out the pyramids below.

The pyramid on the left is the old one we use to go by, the pyramid

on the right is the new pyramid we use today. The light blue on the new pyramid is the amount of milk we are recommended to have in our diet. As you can see it is much larger then before if you compare it with the fruit and veggies we were suppose to consume according to the old pyramid and the amount we are suppose to now.

Have you ever wondered, why don't we use dog milk or horse milk instead of cow's milk? It's not because it's gross, it's because cows are more docile, easy to maintain, and yield a greater quantity of milk. Our main milk source could have been from elephants had they been more appropriate to use.

The bottom line is, cow milk is made to feed baby cows, not humans.

For sources and more facts check out NOTmilk.com some of it is a little overkill, but these guys are really hardcore.And so you know, I love cheese and ice cream and I love milk and cookies, but after reading about and researching milk, I am heartbroken to have to remove dairy from my diet. Sniff.

Although I don't believe that a single person needs 10 guns, I do believe this...

My Tribute To My Girlfriend's Boobs....

2009-04-09T10:30:00.000-07:00

My girlfriend's boobs are the most amazing yaboos I have every had the joy to put my hands on, rest my head on, and motorboat on. On a bad day all I have to do is think of her beauty and the suppleness that defines her chest and I am in bliss. They rest in the palms of my hands so nicely as if they were made specifically for me to hold. They are flawless in shape, texture, and size. The perfection that are my girlfriend's boobs makes me believe in a God, because they could have only be created one. I consider myself the luckiest person alive, for I get to enjoy my girlfriend's boobs on a daily basis. But the best and most amazing part about my girlfriend's boobs is that they belong to the most amazing and beautiful girl on this earth.
Thank you for sharing your boobs with me Tiger. I love you.

My Goodby to Rufeo Squirrel Man

2009-04-06T08:24:00.000-07:00

Have a good and happy life outside with your friends little man, I'll miss you so much. You've given me so much joy and laughter in the time you have lived with me, but now it's time to go and fulfill your true life as a squirrel. I never knew a squirrel could give a person unconditional friendship until I met you, I consider you a great friend and an awesome little guy. Your absence makes my home seem a little empty and my heart as well, I'll forever miss your sweet little face and the peanuts you hide in my bag. You have changed my view of squirrels and my life forever.
I love you little man.

Let it be...

I have a friend who is in love with another.
They are kept apart because of her mother.

They are not allowed any communication,

Their love is considered an abomination.
She loves her more then her mother understands.
But she is suppose to live how the religion demands.
They can never be together as far as the religion is in concern.
The religion is the right way and in time she'll learn.
It's not her that needs to learn what's right,
But others who condemn her for having a different sight.
My friend and her love, such a tragic love tale.
Why would anyone want true love to fail.
As for me and I'm sure you too,
There is no choosing who you love and who loves you.
Time and time again a love is split apart,
And the unbearable brokenness of two hearts.
