The one who cannot be named ...

I just finished watching a documentary. The kind of documentary that scared me so much that I am not sure if I talk about it I might get in a lot of trouble, but most of all a documentary after watching which you start to loose all hope and faith in the human kind. The need and greed of a few, overpowering the entire worlds population. How a corporation can knowingly experiment with the worlds population only so they can harvest a nice profit. Are we running after technology so much that we have started to blurr the distinction between life and death, between natural and synthetic, alive and mechanical. Are humans completely under the illusion that they are the master here. The link contains a video (which I am sure will be taken down soon) which is about 2 hours long and somewhat boring. But if you have any concern about anything alive (including yourself) do take those 2 hours to watch this.

A few years back I was shocked to learn about the oil industry and our unsustainable ways. It made me very depressed to know how we were being so irresponsible and I was certain that we humans would be responsible for the end of this beautiful planet. That feeling of depression lasted for a few months as I continued reading on the topic. Then one day I had a realization and I calmed down. I was no longer depressed, just sad, very very sad. The realization was that I am insignificant. The human race is insignificant, and I was sad that the human race in its infinite pride will never realize that. We are a blip in the time line of this planet and if we continue our ways we will be wiped clean and replaced just like an artist would wipe clean a tiny mistake in his masterpiece. The very thought that the human race can in any way "save" the planet is preposterous. At the very best we can try and save our selves.

Today I feel a similar feeling. I feel hurt and depressed. This is worse than the unsustainable and polluting ways we are trying to mend. This has much deeper impact and practically irreversible. The only ray of hope I see here is that this might actually speed up the wiping out process if we don't pay attention anytime soon.
