Walking the Red Road in Life. (Reposted from Treebearbear)

..There is nothing placed upon this Earth that deserves to bedestroyed or wastedfor the purpose of human convenience.To destroy trees and leave them unused simply because they blockedthe view of the garden,orto kill animals only for their fur, is not arightful way to share the world with another.
To waste and discard something due to your ownselfishness is an act that goes against theCreator, and strays you from the Red Road.
Now tell me this one little thing,if thou hast any sense:Which of these two is the wisest and happiest...be who labours without ceasing and only obtains, and thatwith great trouble, enough to live onor be whorests in comfort and finds all that he needs in thepleasure of hunting and fishing?
