    To survive
    Sometimes I sit back and think about what it means for other animal species to be alive. They hunt and they reproduce and they migrate and they just keep going and going about their business. The only species who seem to be messing anything up are humans, but, I will give us credit at least for this thought. What if there is no point to being alive besides the sheer need to exist on this planet as another living organism?

    Think about where our genes have come from, and our ancestors, and their ancestors. Have all living things evolved from the same, first-ever living organism and they've simply all found their unique niches? Would that not make every living thing on earth all related somehow...like we're all a part of the earth because the entire planet is everybody and everything's to have?

    Surviving for us would become so much easier once we realized that rather than work against other animals, peoples, plants, etc we should embrace the state of the earth as our reality: look at what we're affecting, look at how we can help make surviving easier for every single thing, not only ourselves... I guess I just think that's the way we're going to survive. I think that if we exclude ourselves from earth in our little "Human" game for too long we may just not survive.

    Yes and yes :)
