Earth

I like to imagine the relationship between Earth and Humans is brutal and crude, yet kinda…cool? Loving? Tough love? Hear me out.

Despite us practically fucking over Earth every chance we get, doesn’t Earth kinda do the same to us? Y’know, tornados, earthquakes, hurricanes? Then we trash her, pollute, etc.

Yet, at the same time, we’re also actively trying to save her. We have ecosystem projects always in motion, always trying to find better sources of energy, etc. And our dear, mother Earth gives us constant fruits and berries, animals for us to eat, some of the most beautiful natural landmarks, etc.

Would aliens find this weird? That despite the shit we put our own planet through, we still love and care enough to clean up after ourselves? Could this be why we’re so evolved and scary? Because we’re so alike and in tune with our own birth planet in many ways, that each of us are our own creation and destruction?
