We could spell disaster by just starting to have a judgement of how small or big a thing is, like for example, a small bullet: it is assumingly designed for people to get hurt but it gives threat as death to a person who could catch one, people tend to look at things as small as it could be, regardless of how much it could effect. Here in our society, it is a huge advancement for the global warming that we're experiencing right now. WHY?
The planet earth is a sphere of many creatures with different, and little much of similar functions or purposes in life, and it's hard to believe that majority of the people only see this planet just as small as their eyes could see, regardless of walls and boundaries, and they tend to judge it as a place of permanency, but the truth is, our environment changes, that's the only permanent thing on this planet, the "change", but then going back how much value do we give on small things; i could conclude that we value it less than big things right?
i had a personal experiment of how small and how big people see things, i left a 10 centavo on a street walk, and 1 peso coin as well, back after 3 hours, i saw the 10 centavo still there and the 1 peso i assume was taken already, do you see the point of what it relates to? that's how big we see the 1 peso coin, and that's how small we see the 10 centavo coin, not realizing that the values of those coins doesn't really give much of a gap from one another, 10 pieces of 10 centavo is equivalent to 1 peso coin already, but we just tend to value the one peso coin, that's just too bad, just as thinking of how small your room, your house, your yard, your whole lot, your street, your block, your village. etc, and how big our planet is, and how BIG our POPULATION is, was never the intention of majority of people, yes we are 1 centavo coin and the Earth is a billion, even a trillion, not considering that we are not the only living being here. Our population increases as it draws much resources from this planet, this is a chaos and a battle between the earth which is not as expanding, versus the population of destroyers called humans which grows like mushrooms all over the globe.
It is also evidently seen that discipline is one crooked thing about us rational beings, when we litter small pieces of trash, we reason out "it's just a little trash, it won't make so much mess", but when we are ought to plant trees, "why do we have to plant trees? the earth is so big and i could just plant just a tinie winky spot here on Earth, and i could just contribute a tinie winie change for the environment." is that what we are? is that called a true rational being? or are we exceeding our rational abilities? we throw garbage because we have REASONS, and we cannot plant trees because of REASONS. we could just hope for a miracle that all trash would be a seed of a tree so that every SPOT here on earth has a tree.
The wants of a SMALL things but missing the big one, is like building a Mansion without trees. got the whole lot of cement all over the mansion, but not considering our only home, the Earth. and we are all indeed in need of the BIG just because it's our only home, and there's nothing we could do about it but to preserve everything, and as much as possible, lessen the intensity of "CHANGE" in various aspects on earth, and let the people ABSORB the change, as it's our temptation, CHANGE is the word that helps us to realize, that CHANGING earth is hopeless years, and let us not count down our time left, but make us of it.
Let us not miss our need of the BIG things in exchange for SMALL, PERSONAL, SELFISH wants that destroys our planet
