Big Favor [Draft]

Please do yourself and the world a huge favor. Tonight, go outside and look up. Realize the billions of stars that surround you in every direction and what you are seeing and feeling. You are in the infinite abyss of Space and Time. Our planet is just a rock orbiting one random star. Our Life, created after many generations on this Petri dish of a planet is a miracle in space and time to be valued, but not necessarily rare. We have been gifted with this life-supporting planet, the Life of the most advanced and most capable of this species, and this Universe for us to share. Our first priority should be to Life and doing what we Humanly can to provide for it the best ways we can possibly imagine. Being barbaric is a mortal sin. Because of your actions, countless millions are suffering and dying each year. Think of the pain existing on your world right now. What are you doing to care for it? By bartering instead of sharing, by competing instead of cooperating, by only allowing the most fittest, most cunning, or most popular rewards of Life, you condemn the rest of the world to which you are responsible for. It is the most selfish act a Human being can commit against another. We all have inherited this Earth. She is all our home. We are all sons and daughters, parts of families and love. We are all needing the same. Why isn’t this loving and capable dominant species of a planet organizing, communicating, and working together to do what must be done? This life is a miracle to be enjoyed. The past has no relevance because it is not here and now. We are. As equals of a compassionate race, it makes sense that our actions not only want to do no harm, but if they could, flex our talents to provide miracles for this species. We are beings who take pleasure in Life, so why not nurture our lives to make this planet the most pleasurable it could be? If we shared and cooperated, what civil people ought to do, we could voluntarily work together to engineer an Earth and future for Humanity that we can truly honor. Using evil devices like borders, trademarks, and currency are the mass weapons of destruction and the true tools of terrorist. Parents, teachers, children, please wake up and see the light that surrounds you. Like the cavemen we are, we cannot see the advances we are about to unleash onto the Universe that is waiting for us to explore. Take another step for mankind. Give us a fresh start and a direction we could look forward to. Reset the calendar to Year 1, and head for an era of Planetary Cooperation that will bring peace and prosperity to every single being alive. It is your duty as a citizen of the Planet Earth and a member of the Human race.
