Some dreams may come true, if they are based on
reality. When humans are made aware of some
dire danger, they act. I rather try to do something
than sitting back, watching the suffering of
other people, including my offsprings and
uttering my dying whisper: I told you so...
We have the means to make people aware,
once they are there is an immense pool of
creativeness to get us through. We yet have the resources.
Shouldn't we try whatever we can?
Shouldn't we go for a massive cooperation,
rather than die?
Have you really so full of contempt for people
that you are content at the thought of us
disappearing without a whimper?
Perhaps this small probability coincidence of
all space conditions so steady in a corner of the universe
won't come together again, conscious life
won't ever happen again.
