The Reforming
by Sharon Rose Poet

    Many of us wonder why natural disasters are suddenly happening more frequently. There are theories about "normal Earth changes", "global warming", "the Earth tilting on its axis" and even "the world coming to an end."
    I feel that there is SOME Truth in most theories - that there are multiple levels of reasons for these sudden shifts in our climate. But no matter how it's perceived or what it's called, it is obvious that these disasters are "Reforming" our ways of being, thinking, feeling and living.
    When I step back and look at the bigger picture - at the dark, destructive levels of greed, selfishness and hate that's been growing in humanity, it seems that our world is being shaken, in order to wake us up and offer an opportunity for us to acquire deeper levels of love for our fellow human beings.     Perhaps the reforming will give us the opportunity to learn deeper levels of what really matters most. . .and that it is how much Heart we have to share with others, rather than how much money, property and things we own.
