Thinking about the importance of the Indigenous. The love of plants, the healing roots, leaves and barks of trees...We have lost our way in our Modernization of all things and we need to retreat and move backwards to see our way forwards.
I am reminded of a story I heard in Ghana when an Humanitarian Group from Outside where so worried about the children suffering from water shortages and starvation and they demanded they stepped in to assist in this CRISIS. They went to the Chiefs and said, "You need Wells, you need clean water to save your people.." and the Tribal Elders said, "We will consult with our Gods."
They consulted and came back to the Humanitarians and said, "Thank you for your concern but the Gods say we should leave you be!"
But the Humanitarians wouldn't take that from the Village Elders thinking them primitive, cruel and foolish. So they went to the Higher Powers in Government to assist...They drilled out Wells and did what they could...and for sure...those that where suffering where made better but because of the fresh water more children where born and the population grew from 100 to 2,500 and the area had not changed. Eventually, the Well ran dry because of the demand and rather than 60 people dying now 2,025 people, men, woman and children where to died because of this act of human kindness.
Listen to the Gods of Africa....
We have a responsibility of Birth Control and Death Control....This has been practiced throughout Africa with incredible success.

I am keen for those throughout Africa to listen to a prophetic writer Aldous Huxley that wrote, Brave New World. This interview is so important to listen to as it seals Africa's fate if Africa is to go too quickly down the path of Commercial Development without proper risk assessments, sensible weighing up of the pros and cons, an holistic approach to African development with Western hindsight; otherwise it will be an absolute disaster. Learn from the mistakes made by those that qualify themselves as "Civilized" because now they are beginning to recognize that they have become over developed and are suffering the consequences of drug addiction, loneliness, depression, suicides and mental health issues on mass. The importance of Africa and the decisions made now will shape the world for our children, grandchildren and our tomorrow. The Power on earth lies in the hands of the Africans.
Here is another video but will take a lot of your Credit....but if you are rich in Africa check it out.
