Are We Really Following the Correct Philosophy? We are privileged with a star, we call the sun, Which maintains light and temperature to evolve and sustain life. As a result, we inhabit a 'blue planet', rare in our solar system. As thinking beings who have developed competing, elevated philosophies, To attempt to explain our sojourn on our special planet, Why is it that these elevated thought processes Have done nothing, but create conflict and competition, Which manifests catalytic action towards the ever-increasing destruction Of our 'blue planet', the actual needed subject for 'reverence', Enabling a continuing phylogenetic, long term, Peaceful coexistence of our species?!
