The Big Bang didn’t anticipate you and me. Evolution didn’t either. We are just part of the glorious explosion of life that we continue to discover in the most unexpected places. We may not even be the most interesting or durable. But we are at the top of the food chain, where we gobble up one another with great abandon.
We are warned that we will soon destroy the planet. We are not that powerful. We will just destroy ourselves and take some other life forms with us. After all, life has had too much practice and is too persistent to disappear.
So we will do what we always do: consume, love, kill, imagine, die, hope, lie, cheat, build, believe, misbehave, dream, create reproduce, all the human things that will accompany us to oblivion.
