This world is amazing with it's varieties of life forms and varied levels of co-habitation. Like most of us humans, we mostly give ourselves a chance to live through our combined efforts to nurture our species, but not always and not enough. However that is not the point of this post, rather the point of this post is about the other life forms we we share this planet with. Many of us have taken on the responsibility of caring and raising them as if they were of our species and even some as if they were more important than some other humans. The politics aside from our wide-ranging efforts of care, is the foundational scope of our desire to see to the needs of those species whose very existence is in danger if we didn't express our care toward them. We have the free will to determine whether our world will remain in a state of unforgiving chaos or whether we should intervene and thrust our will on outcomes as if we have a conscious right to do so. Lacking any other guidance, it should be obvious that we are the caretakers of this planet without any other "being" directing our thoughts and actions. We take what we know of life and what we believe about life and apply it to our everyday activities. Such is the revealing aspect I wish to discuss, our care for those living things that without our care would experience massive harm. In our human souls we have concluded that a few of our best emotions; love, joy and happiness outweigh any non regard for the health and safety of those life forms less able to defend their right to exist. In this we humans show majesty and nobility that can only be admired by any who would look within our society and critique the essence of humanity.
