Isn’t America just humanity crashing up against the edge of the global petri dish? Didn’t it start with, “Go forth and multiply?”

The problem is we are linear, goal seeking creatures in a cyclical, reciprocal, feedback driven reality. We haven’t really come to terms with the earth being round. She has not only seen a few little human empires come and go, but eons of life, rising and falling.

The spiritual absolute isn’t some ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which we fell, but the essence of life and sentience, from which we rise. It has risen and fallen through a billion spins around the sun.

So yes, America is a bit more of a weed, than an Oak tree, a rabbit than a turtle. Living fast and dying soon.

Whatever it is just shines out through a billion eyes and will shine out through billions more. You many not be special, but you are unique. Enjoy.
