Eric you have provided a ‘pro-life’ advocates experiences with miracles in your link. I will provide one of my own below, from a ‘pro-choice’ advocate; me. This one relates to some of the issues you provided above. I do not need a link or example from someone else on the experience, since it is my own. I made my own choice not to have a child of my own. And I’m glad no one has forced me to as is the present environment and lawful situation in certain social circles and states today. Especially quite a few forceful religious fanatics attempting to determine the fate and precautions of a conscious minded public able to make their own choices when the opportunity is available.
For me personally, I am fortunate to not have gone down the road of having chemotherapy or having a child to complicate matters further! I asked Amma for advice on terminal stage four melanoma cancer. She told me to follow my doctors guidance. The doctor I chose gave me a choice between chemotherapy and immunotherapy; I chose immunotherapy and the blessings of Amma and the practice of yoga and the energization exercises most my life. Also praying as this women did that you speak of above. Fortunately for me I did not choose the route of having a child. I was fortunate to be completely cured of Melanoma.
If it were not for the conscious choice not to add more of an invasive species to Mother Earth I may have had children. And, added to an already existing overpopulation problem that most human beings - in my opinion - ignorantly continue to encourage.
Everyone needs to be responsible not only to their own life but to the life of our planet and our already existing children and what kind of world they will live in. I’m not here to tell other people how to live and I doubt that you are either Eric. But you have your personal choice and I have mine. Hunan choices have made the current situation we have in the world today. We are both witnesses to it. Miracles come in different ways some add to the already existing challenges and others minimize them. I leave that up to your karma and choices in the matter. My hope is that you will do the same with others, and that others will also give people the opportunity to make their own choices, without enforcing their moral edicts on the populace. In an effort and attitude of belief they know what’s right for others.
I support ‘pro-life’ for our planet; Mother Earth, After all how can she make the choice on her own without our support and help? I support ‘pro - choice’ for the stewardship to our planet; Mother Earth and find those who attempt to force their will on others as tyrants and bullies who perhaps make poor choices for themselves; yet they attempt to make choices for others as well. If it wasn’t for the fact I chose not to have a child, I might have not been alive today. And, if we don’t have pro-choice ‘ today ‘, we may not have Mother Earth to live on ‘ tomorrow ‘.
