earth and society

Earth is a beautiful planet, from space it looks like a blue pearl. As a society, we are very resilient. So many disasters and tragedies have occurred throughout the ages and then we regroup and rebuild. Munich is almost entirely rebuilt brick for brick after being bombed in WW2 for example.

Africa is another example, raided incessantly it actually has, since slavery, brought about full rights for women on several occasions which were all destroyed aside from current South Africa and some matriarchal tribes, by colonialism. 

So from that regard, from a planetary and progress perspective we are frequently a blight on each other (hello Irish potato famine).

But resilience always pokes up it's head. We are also ingenious, inventing all sorts all the way back to even the pyramids and the hanging gardens of babylon (we still don't understand how they were made or used). Maybe invention was even strong in the stone age, many complex tools have been discovered that no one can even guess what for.

Earth is a great home for those reasons, AND we're adventurous, constantly exploring and expanding our boundaries, currently in outer space!
