When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth

I don’t know why I phrased the title of this blog in the past tense. In hindsight, I probably should have titled it "While Dinosaurs Rule The Earth." You still think the title is incorrect? Well, I disagree. The dinosaurs are still amongst us. They just evolved into "politicians" and "big business," which is also known as "corporations" or "multinational corporations."

Like those giant lizards of old, we have the herbivores and the carnivores roaming about. Some are harmless, but most are not. We seem to have an abundance of T-Rex types amongst the ranks of the current crop. The one good thing I suppose is the T-Rex doesn’t discriminate – everything and everyone is suitable prey!!!

The dinosaurs of old were not known for innovation, and true to their dinosaur heritage, the present-day dinosaurs are not innovative. They still sing the same old songs they have been singing for years. Some folks are lured to a complacent state of being and to a false sense of security by that old swan song of the dinosaurs. To that, I say: A T-Rex is still a T-Rex, and the T-Rex does not hunt the tops of trees for leaves!!!

We all know the fate of the dinosaurs of old. I suppose the question begs to be asked is do we allow the dinosaurs of today to continue to lure us, through their swan song, to the path that ensures our own extinction.

Peace
