Picture Space. Dark, cold, and is almost never ending. In that Space, amongst many things, are Stars. Lots and lots of Stars, more Stars than you can possibly count. From no matter where you are, the Stars densely and completely, surround you.
Pick one of those billions of Stars to examine up close. It’s huge, blindingly bright, and full of unbelievable renewable energy. And around that star, you notice trapped in its orbit, the beautiful planet Earth. It is the ultimate recreational planet.
A refuge, no, a paradise, from deadly space; barely protected by a thin atmosphere while blazing through the Universe, going round and round our Star, in amazing speed. It is the Petri dish of Petri dishes. Its existence tempts fate. Age, measured by laps around Sol, places the Earth in the ancient category. She’s old. Really really old.
Life in Space is a gift. This planet and that Star our lifeboats.
Fortunately, you, a surviving member of our very young species, are not alone. It was all the previous generations actions, which have led to your existence today. All that pain and suffering, for the learning and adapting, to acquire all the knowledge, all the technology, and all the capability, to improve on survival and experience.
We are all equals. We all inhabit this planet, and she is equally ours to share. The past can’t claim ownership. We are the ones whom are here and now. We all have a voice. We are the ones whom decide the present, and we have no right to condemn the future by letting the past corrupt our actions in the present. We are smarter than that. We are better than that. The Human race survives because we learn and adapt.
The last members of our species are like nothing that has come before. We acquire greater knowledge and greater wisdom, and today we have global communication. I have always said, “World Peace is easy”. It’s just a matter of using some common sense.
Borders can’t been seen from orbit. That’s because they don’t really exist.
Life is the only thing that matters, and it is up to all of us, to communicate, organize, volunteer, and share to protect and to provide the best quality for all Life. Anything less, would be a sin and insanity.
Do you know why money is the root of all evil? Because it is.
If it an unnecessary negative influence that defies logic and reason.
Stop using it and start using your brains. Grow up and take responsibility for your charge. You are a temporary owner of a planet, and responsible for every single person on her and who will be on her. Use technology to help, not extort. It’s a dishonor to the Humans whom have come before, and to the children whom you now teach.
