Hu'manity is an abhorrent beast that is a complete stranger not only to ourselves but to life on planet Earth. We are destroying the habitat of all other life on Earth that was seeded with our early ancestors eons before records were kept. In our collective memories we still instinctively look to the stars as if we know one day that is where we will return... a distant world that is hu'manity's home where we were not strange beasts, not the foreigner... the newest species upon a small, but life-active planet that sustains us but will not be able to provide for our instinctive need for more than this planet can produce.
On our home world we had everything. Our species knew not the word 'need' for we were able to outgrow that primitive desire long, long before that planet became unstable. It was not because of any failures of our kind but the evolutionary changes all planets must endure. We had the advantage of astral-travel to go wherever we needed whenever we chose in the instant of perception. We used that method to find a suitable planet that we could transfer to. Our species was split amongst three different planets with this which we called Earth being populated with the smaller contingency to our kind.
We had to learn how to survive by studying the various species on this planet to determine which was the most likely to provide us with that which our ancestral home so generously did. Our ancient forefathers had long discussions and debates... so many types of life that shared this planet and so many had adapted so well that to choose was understandably a long and arduous task. There was a very close call to choose life beneath the oceans of this planet by borrowing variously from the dolphin/porpoise/whales which seemed to be extremely intelligent and overall a most peaceful life form.
The ancients settled upon an upright creature that had two opposable thumbs. This would provide the closest possible solution to protecting ourselves with the ability to create that which we would need to keep our species alive and productive as closely to our home planet as was possible. Borrowing DNA from a species that most closely resembled the present day primates, the ancients were able to use their own genetic cells to create that which we now call ourselves - hu'man.
This was an extraordinary method that relied upon our ancestor's vast knowledge accumulated over what we call millennium. After so many months on this planet they quickly discovered that these environs, which were so well-suited to the vast lifeforms here, were not beneficial to their own individual lives. The original home planet did not have the radically, rapid rotational planet that brought light and darkness so quickly to our ancestors that it brought them ill health. Our original home did not exhibit the dualities and the suddenness of change on the scale they do on this planet. Weather was a phenomenon with it's extremes in such short periods of time it did not provided enough time for acclimation for them. As strangers here, their resistance waned and they realized in order to survive they had to make their decisions quickly before they left their bodies to this world.
The young and unknowing new species our ancestors left is who we are today. Our intellect grows in concert with the outward expansion of the universe from which we belong. Our questions were inherited from those same ancestors and with each new answer we continue making slow-but-sure steps to that which is beyond this world... each step out to the stars that hold our future as it did for those ancients that came before us leaving their treasure of Being within us so we may continue passing this life on to those children of the future who will inherit the Light of Being, hu'man or not, but more knowing than we are today.
_______
What is it we can honestly say to ourselves
when asked, "What do we know?" without
relying on the vagaries of memory gained from
books written by the same people we all are
with weaknesses and frailties hoping for answers
more than facts based on opinions for opinions sake
and seldom the Truths that will envelope us in bliss..?
