Scale drawing of Earth’s cross-section falling through cosmos…

See that narrow turquois sliver? All life in universe we currently know of happened there. I didn’t try to exaggerate when I said some time ago that we are like organisms within a thin layer of algae on a burning rock that’s hurling without destination at enormous speeds through the space. That is our existential situation. Life and universe are marvelous. How stupid is to wage wars? How idiotic is anxiety and greed that breed them?

Scared little microbes,
Oblivious of the sky,
Fight for resources.
