Story of the earth

 

over millions of years and ever since humans evolved into conscious and intelligent beings, one question of our existence and creator has been haunting us. As seekers and explorers we have seen various theories, doctrines, and stories come into existence, while few survived most became extinct as they could not survive in a wheel of time.  everything that was believed to be answers to our questions was not able to as we upgraded our level of critical thinking generation by generation. so our questions stand intact and untamed in a frame of time. who are we? who created us? what is our purpose in life? is there a divine or supernatural from far space controlling us? while few are dedicated to carving out agreeable answers others create stories that further give room for more questions. ever since the advent of navigation routes an era of plundering started. over the past five centuries, The world has witnessed numerous turns of events, while few events make us pride in our resolve, dedication, and intelligence others are rather shameful histories of our tyranny like humans enslaving fellow humans, atrocities on weaker people, segregation of people based on their skin color and language. during all these organized religions god was also created which led to further division of peoples based on faith. numerous wars were fought to prove their respective supremacy. Millions were killed and massacred. despite that religion proved to be futile in answering the basic and common questions of our species, ” Who created us “, and “What is the purpose of our existence” With time due to the Industrial Revolution our economies were boosted and life expectancy doubled. the population exploded, our lives became simpler soon all the directions of earth witnessed similar models of change. sooner the adversities have shown their course due to our constant bombardment on earth for resources, forests diminished, large scale pollution of water bodies and land masses have boiled earth to its alarming levels.  so before we could answer eternal questions such as, Who are we and who created us, the earth started showing signs of large-scale extinction due to our fast-paced lives and so-called development activities.

So what our history of the earth is trying to tell us? Is it indicating something yet we turn a blind eye as we are fully soaked in our self-created mad rush? All along we chased to find questions haunting us since times immemorial but when something came to our glance, we buckled up and were reluctant to accept as we were inundated with our false egos. The course of events suggests that we as humans have committed a blunder and did something wrong and traveling in a boat with no idea of possible shores. is it not worthwhile to just stop and brainstorm on our gruesome mistakes over the years? is it not time to stop chasing our dreams and start working from our earth’s perspective? is it not time to stop any further attempts to make our lives simpler and look at what nature offers us and present our gratitude in return for safeguarding our nature, our earth?
