There’s a thread from the Big Bang to us.

We emerge from the creative intelligence of the universe
The story continues through us.
As unique, conscious, self aware beings.

We are not the story.
...we are the universe looking at itself.
We play a unique role in the story,…

“And, tell me, why should I care? Well…
“… In a few centuries,
we have changed the planet
in its physical structure and
in its life functioning on a
scale that formerly took
hundreds of millions of
years.”

"Any nation that plunders its own
resources for economic gain, to
the detriment of the larger context

The Universe Story By Jim Ayala
I am a feather on the bright sky.
I am the blue horse that runs the plain.
I am the fish that rolls, shining, in the water,
I am the shadow that follows a child…
I am the hunger of a young wolf.
I am the whole dream of things.
You see, I am alive, I am alive.
- Scott Momaday
Native American Poet
