This is my contribution to the world through the ink, paper and a little bit of controversy!
Earth is rotated off its axis. We are losing time, literally, as a
result. It makes me feel humbled that we are not the masters of Earth,
that our intellect is not superior. We are just a speck on the face of
the Earth. A nasty speck... How will we be remembered with the time we
had on the Earth? WILL we be remembered? You be the judge.

Inhibitions? What inhibitions?! ;-)
Ya NUR
Nuri...
by Cost-of-Progress on Fri Mar 05, 2010 02:07 PM PSTI must say that I see you in a whole different light lately...what happened baby? Other than you're still a zealot....If you give up your inhibitions...you might be allright - after all.....

Masters of our own ego..

Cost-of-Progress : Well said! We are an inifinitesimal moment in time in the grand scheme of things. :)
@ Nur-i-Azal: Fully agree. I saw a documentary about plants and how they actually feel what the mood around them is and they respond. There are so many other forms of life around us but we as humans are quite full of ourselves! And indeed Earth is speaking, indirectly, to us!
We are only masters of our own ego!
Thank you for weighing in.

Humans aren't the masters of the Earth
by Nur-i-Azal on Thu Mar 04, 2010 10:45 PM PSTSeveral indigenous cultures around the globe believe that the true masters of the Earth are actually the plants, not the humans.
More earthquakes like the one in Chile will be coming during this year, the next and the following year. Mother Earth is on the move!
Ya NUR
Indeed Kaveh,
by Cost-of-Progress on Thu Mar 04, 2010 12:09 PM PSTthe earth actually sped off by about 1/1,000,000 of a second making a day that much shorter!, Howver, the Indonesian quake in 2004 was even greater and it shortend the day by 8/1,000,000 of a second!!!
I agree with you, I too have the same outlook (i do not see it as dark or dim, just real). All the stuff we worry about on a daily basis makes no difference to anyone in the grand scheme of thing.

Great point.....philosophic one at that too!
by KavehAhangarAdel on Thu Mar 04, 2010 08:23 AM PSTThe Earthquake in Chile did move the Earth off its axis by a hair and that shaved off a fraction of a second from the 24 hour day. My take on it is exactly what you pointed out: Earth will be around a long time, we are just on borrowed time. If the equilibrium is tipped by us or any other reason, Earth corrects itself if it means slowly but surely removing us, unless....! I know it's a dark outlook but I feel we have a responsibility. We may think we are the masters but ......, well, you can fill in the blank!
Thanks for your attention,

So kaveh
by Cost-of-Progress on Thu Mar 04, 2010 08:06 AM PSTHow did this happen? ...Earth coming off its axis, I mean.
How can species as agressive and hostile as humans ever be the masters of earth?
