Cutting the School Week Short to Save Gas

If any of you were thinking the gas situation was not a problem....here is some more proof...

Schools are closing for a few days to save fuel.....
Ga. Closes Schools for 2 Days to Save Fuel

And in other cities in Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan, Georgia, Washington and California (and maybe soon, Indiana), the school week has been permanently cut down to 4 days to save on gas

Of course there isn't just one cause to this problem - it isn't just the war, the large school bus, the hurricanes, the SUV's, or suburbia in general. We have found ourselves at this time where all of society's past decisions are now catching up with us. We always thought it would be the next generation who would have to deal - but it looks like it is us and we should be ready to change.

What about it is just the result of our own past lifes dids which we have to face?
We have always being the same in different lively forms. Of course it is easy to take it as we are good and how come do we have to face all this evil? It is really about consiousness and we have this life to solve it unless we want to come back again and things will be harder and harder. We can always spend time in blaming on others but if we could use all this time in correcting our lifes and behaviours only then we might become real samples for others and bodies and matter will let space for souls.
Why we see all this horrible things around and finally just support it by eating animals (do you know what does involve and where does it come from?), eating eggs which are soooo hormonized which are causing children to be sexually active before time, among many other things like watch very destroying and senseless TV...
All what we see and here leaves a stamp on our conciousness.
Only when we'll accept that in previous lifes we caused this that we suffer now, we might stop complaining and putting our hands in our eyes and ears.
Finally for our betterment we have to get hard times and experiences.
But there is hope, is just about us willing or not to take of masks and let the light from our souls shine, not only on a poem but practising. We are here to realize ourSelfs as souls no matter what the outside world that we have created looks like or seems to call us for. Too long we have left the negative power overtaking.
And... the time for change is here and now...
