This life is finite and most likely the end of our existence.  While here some choose to burn steadily.  Some burn brightly shortly.  But while here do we have a greater responsibility demonstrated by the countless other species around us?  To survive the species is our responsibility.  Our species are our mothers fathers daughters and sons living and caring for one another.  This family, children of earth, all, every single last one, should be freely offered the best humanity has to show for a species of billions with one of the most complex brains on the planet can surely volunteer and cooperate by contributing however by exercising our given talents which if we have a passion to perform in order to best survive us all.  This is what is to be civilized and a peaceful being so a world of us could be a reality. This is a legacy worth living for and passing to the next generation in hopes to further prevent our extinction.
