Earth, The - reacts to the activities of humans

05/07/2016

The earth, our planet, is alive; it breathes, it eats, it is sensitive and it reacts to the activities of humans who inhabit it. But they are not aware of it, and are only focused on exploiting it for their interest. They turn it upside down, rummage around in it, dig it up or flatten it, without once asking themselves whether they are disrupting an order that they are not aware of. The earth receives all this in the form of itches, stings and wounds, and then from time to time it gives a flick to rid itself of these incessant and irritating intruders. Of course, the earth is patient, it puts up with their actions for a while but in the end it gets angry. Then the unfortunate humans are terrified and they suffer. But will they be willing to really learn the lesson?
