How outstanding can a human be when he lives in connection with his ecosystem, not as a power-hungry consumer trying to seize opportunities for his own profit but as a co-traveller with other living beings?
We humans have much to learn with deep humility and shame that we know only peripheries of the cosmic intelligence that runs our planet and the varied archetypes of species, colonies and worlds within it. And when we know so less and that we humans are as vulnerable and as destined, we will honour all life as precious as our very own, not any lesser.
Also, there are so many relationships we can never name or place on the shelves of our named ones. Each connection of our heart is so unique and nothing as precious as that one can ever replicate itself. Curiosity and intimacy are co-existent and flame each other. This unique understanding and patience to wait for the other emerge not from a petty romance but deep compassion that brims forth from the heart’s depths. Without words, love translates itself across even species and life forms. Isn’t it enthralling to know that love is not unique only in humans but we humans can translate it into words?
The depth of our own existence which is fickle like a few drops and yet Powerful enough to cause immense impacts is the double-edged sword that we as humans will never really know. But when we do..we will become no lesser than our Gods that make all of this…
In humble abidance to what is… We are whole and complete.
