A EULOGY TO STEVE IRWIN! A HER
A EULOGY TO STEVE IRWIN! A HERO OF EPIC PROPORTIONS!
He was a champion for ANYONE who loves life, ALL life.
Peirced through the heart, such a positive force for inspiration, and of hope. I want to blame it on a conspiracy but it wouldn't bring him back.
How utterly devastating, yet despite my broken heart, I can scarcely imagine what this loss for Terri, despite her INCREDIBLE strength, is having to endure. Their story could not be a more perfect example of the traditional concept of soul mates, in perfect Faery Tale fashion. Their combined force has been nothing less than epic, a myriad of humbling accomplishments, the awareness they've raised alone. Such a severing would require an entire country worth of empathy, thankfully, she has that in the least, and two of his children certainly.
No less for his closest friends, who long before he was famous, stood as paladins, undying loyalty, won over by his courage, strength & integrity & justness of his heart. For the community of people closest to him, who have lost such a creative and positive force.
With his death, collectively, the entire world, anyone with the capacity for empathy has been skewered, whether they know it or not. Ominous,in a time when there is no time to lose. In this utterly corrupted world subjugated by diabolic motivations. In this OILgarchical, modern feudal serfdom, a mere commoner, Steve Irwin rose to a truly deserved nobility (UNLIKE politicians), he's a template which humanity should aspire, and what a hero should be ascribed. Through his leadership, he encouraged us to face our deepest fears, to help us recognize the animal/human condition. Obviously in great part, by his unwavering love of crocs, unjudgemental by nature, he vigourously inspired in great part with positive attitude, avoided in making us feel guilty. Mistake that is often associated with an elitist environmentalist snob like I'm about to be.
Conservationist, is a very stagnant, static, compartmentalized, polarizing word to describe anyone who would desire to save the quality of life, let alone Steve. Certainly, doesn't do justice to a man who embodied a brilliant combination of compassion, energy, passion, courage, humility, love, which he had for humans and animals alike, matched only but easily with his passion to share, to teach and inspire everyone.
If you know you need clean water, clean air, viable soil, for the human race to survive, let alone have freedom, whatever "freedom" means, the idea of the label, namely conservationist becomes ridiculously redundant. If you rely on any source/system to sustain your health, survival, quality of life, you would want to protect or CONSERVE that system/source, that makes ANYONE who has the passion to live, a conservationist, get the picture?
Perhaps it's a bit smoggy, you might consider the analogy -- what is your standard for a life worth living? your source of income, your parents, your home as something worth conserving for survival? Perhaps equate the need for a healthy planet, from elements combined, to resources, such as the health of the soils, water plants and animals, as the ultimate source of sustaining all life on this planet. Conservationist? What's the alternative? Reductionist? Destructionist? Disconnectist?
Conservation, symbiosis, inherently obvious, the need in protecting your world, as the idea of protecting your family, need of preserving our living world is not just a political or moral persuit, and quite ominously, the world just lost one of its most inspiring leaders & most able conveyers for this message, & of hope, not just a conservationist.
Stingray, ironically the most innocent amongst us. I can only hope, that his death was not symbolic of our failure, a terrible omen - having lost our chance for saving our planet - but rather, in the grand design, this immense tradgedy will invigorate & raise globally our collective conciousness through his spirit. Guided perhaps by another leader, Queen Terri, who will depose His Illigitimacy, Dubya, and other arch criminal mutations of humanity, if not to dream.
One World, One Love IMPEACH EM ALL!!!!

"A growing majority of the world's energy consumers now live in cities, exploiting "advanced" technology. Nature... is not something to be enjoyed at the weekend, or toyed with for sport or otherwise. Conservation of natural spaces is not just a luxury. These are dangerous illusions that ignore the vast benefits of nature to the lives of 6 billion people on the planet. We may have distanced ourselves from nature, but we rely completely on the services it delivers." thothweb
