I’m just feeling so distressed right now
This Iraq war is just so awful. i’m upset enough i needed to write
this abc, so i can take the energy of these strong feelings i am
having right now and put them to some good use, rather than sit
frozen and feeling so useless/powerless to do anything. so here goes
A: The war on Iraq oil wells burning
B: I am so tense, my stomach is in knots and I’m in tears. This is
such a nightmarre! the oil wells are burning, bombs falling, and
people dying. So many i know who’s relatives are in the war right now.
The troops have just moved across the border into Iraq. I feel so
upset and helpless. I will not smoke because of this. I want to
comfort my friends, I want mother earth not to hurt so. I want to
get past this feeling of helplessness.
C: I’m going to do some deep breathing here, and I can cry, its ok.
I’m not going to smoke, it won’t help anything here. I am going to
write to my friends whose family members are in the war in this
invasion taking place at the moment. I am going to burn sage and
sweetgrass in a stone bowl as my way of praying for the saftey of
everyone and for mother earth’s pain. With this plan i’m feeling
calmer and less helpless. There is at least a little something that I
can do…
Thanks for listening to me
