Eco "Consciousness"

There is so much that we as an individual can do to live in harmony with nature. This is my first ever writeup on anything related to being eco-aware. I always felt that telling people to be Nature friendly did absolutely nothing towards getting them to make a conscious effort to be less hard on nature. Today, I felt that maybe I should at least write about eco "consciousness". I have learnt most of the good things in life either by reading or listening to other people. Now it is my time to let the word go around. Here is a wonderful effort being made by some-

The links were sent to me by a friend and I felt like sharing it with YOU. I really do hope that YOU will make a difference.
Love,

Water

I want to be water.
Just flow .

Did you find peace?

I want to give up everyting to find peace. I want to lose myself to find me.

The mundane things of life sometimes makes me cry out to find God and ask him who I am? Or what I am? Or why I am? Or why "I the world" is what it is? I hear - "just bear it for sometime and things will be better tomorrow". No, nothing will be right tomorrow unless I wake up to make it better. It is not worthwhile to bear the pain when it beats your mind and tires your heart and stops your uplifting thoughts. The only place where there is peace is within you. It is only, in thinking of a completely safe existence within your mind. The external factors then cease to affect you. It helps you filter all your worldly roles and just love the peace that you find within yourself.
I have a picture of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa given to me by my grandmother. He has such a serene face and it makes me want to plunge into the snap to ask him what is it that makes him so peaceful. What is it that he has found? They say when you find that peace your worldly presence does not matter. All that the people do around you does not matter. You learn to just live. You learn to believe that in the end all this will cease to exist. "I" cease to exist. But I continue to feed the want of the mind to be in this world and not within me. Can't I live with uncertainities? Why are uncertainities and questions of life bothering me? Why can't I find my peace? Why am I still looking for it around me? Why am I looking for an easy(I have no clue what easy is) life?

Peace talketh - I am "here".

In the hope that there will be peace in this war-trodden world - Within each of us.
