Perhaps Rousseau had It right with his ‘noble savage’ theory.
Nobility of the savage has no place in the western notion of civilization.
What did white colonizers do to indigenous peoples who had lived for centuries in harmony with Mother Earth?
In the vast panorama of todays ashen world I see war machines of imperialism battling for supremacy. One nuclear bomb can end it all.
He who kills more, wins. Always will. Israel today, another crazed entity tomorrow.
Modern Technology takes all.
Wherever you choose to be on this shrinking maddeningly gorgeous planet of ours, I hope we can meet. I travel a lot!
