"And I looked and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was death, and hell followed with him"
Revelations Chapter 6 Verse 8
A white horse: The first seal is opened a white horse appears, it's rider holding a bow (conquest). It can be interpreted that the first horse appears as White due to deceit and the rider is said to be a false prophet.
A red horse: Second seal is opened and appears a red horse, Its rider given a sword (war), and the power to take peace from the earth and make men kill eachother.
A black horse: The third seal is opened. It's rider holds a pair of scales (famine). Symbolizing a scarcity of food.
A pale horse: Fourth seal opened, a pale horse appears. It's rider is called death. Wrought pestilence to the world.
Terrifyling that all four of these things take place all over the world everyday. The white horse?? Bush? Saddam? God (causes war)? A red horse, pretty obvious... there are currently wars all over the planet: Ireland, Israel, Korea etc... A black horse, famine seems to be everyware and will only worsen with global warming Drought, flooding, typhoons, etc. And pestilence... which got me started on this in the first place. Not since Yersinia Pestis or the Bubonic plague, has there been so much death due to natural disease. Cancer of every sort. An estimated 153,100 new cases of cancer and 70,400 deaths will occur in Canada in 2006. As well as AIDS, currently in Africa there are 24,500,000 people living with HIV, 2 million of which are children.
The world is turning into shi*t cause hardly anyone is doing anything about it, Including me but I am changing that. Do what you can, which is exactly what I am doing. Go to school for something that can make a difference(money shouldn't be your goal), if school is not an option then educate yourself. STOP CONSUMING! All the shi*t we buy just ends up in dumps anyways, for example don't get a new winter jacket or snowboard if your old ones not broken, completly out of pop or no longer waterproof... trendy shi*t won't matter when we live in a massive lava pit. Recycle. Use biodegradable products. Support small business, DON'T GO TO FLIPPIN' STARBUCKS, I know they make good stuff but it's the principle of it. Vote. Plant a tree. Plant a hundred trees. Fundraise with whatever your good at, and fly to some under developed country and help them out, condoms or teach them how to be self-sustainable. Learn about another culture, put yourselves in their shoes. Walk, don't drive... or look into bio-diesel for your truck of veggie gas for your car. Pick up litter. Put a compost bucket under your sink. Minimize your water use, our culture uses ridiculous amounts: 10+ minute showers and cleaning your clothes everytime you wear them is NOT NECESSARY!
Talk to yourself about this.
Talk with your friends about this.
