Polar Bear Fact:  While the polar bear is not listed as a threatened or endangered species, they once were the objects of severe hunting.  However since 1968, their population has increased from about 10,000 to 21,000-28,000.
 
We have forgotten who we are.
We have forgotten who we are
We have alienated ourselves from the unfolding of the cosmos.
We have become estranged from the movements of the earth
We have turned our backs on the cycles of life.
We have forgotten who we are.
We have sought only our own security
We have exploited simply for our own ends
We have distorted our knowledge
We have abused our power.
We have forgotten who we are.
Now the land is barren
And the waters poisoned
And the air is polluted.
We have forgotten who we are.
Now the forests are dying
And the creatures disappearing
And humans are despairing.
We have forgotten who we are.
We ask forgiveness
We ask for the gift of remembering
We ask for the strength to change.
We have forgotten who we are.
