I AM A HEATHEN

 In the past, people were labeled as "heathens" because they did not share or

wish to share the same beliefs as the "civilized" people who invaded their countries.        

They held true to the beliefs handed down to them from their FATHERS, and their

FATHERS and their FATHERS before them for preceeding generations upon

generations.

Those very beliefs were an EVERYDAY , EVERY MOMENT PART

OF EVERYTHING IN THEIR LIVES.

An INTEGRAL part of their very being that they COULD NOT 

POSSIBLY SEPARATE FROM ANY PART OF THEIR LIFE, like we

do today with separating our religious, spiritual and government, etc. 

Their TRUE, HONEST, BASIC BELIEFS AND WAY OF LIVING kept

them BALANCED with the world and NATURE around them. 

Their WAY OF LIFE was one of WELL BEING for each and every one of them.    

Today we still live in a very beautiful world that has the potential to be SO

  MUCH BETTER THAN IT IS RIGHT NOW. 

We have allowed the "civilized" world to suppress us with so

much EXTREME NEGATIVITY that our beautiful world is a world

of horror, pain, suffering and unhappiness for many, many billions of people.    

How sad.    

Sadder still, is that most people have given up hope.  They have no basic

 beliefs to keep them stable in these times of dishonesty, mistrust, jealousies,

 fear, terror, ect.  They feel helpless and hopeless to even cause any positive

effective change in their own lives, so how can they possibly help the world.    

With so many people feeling so hopeless and helpless and burying their heads
