I saw this extremely powerful video yesterday evening and just had to write about it.
Julia Roberts lends her voice to a beautiful beautiful monologue by Nature.
Powerful, Lashing, Terrifyng, Beautiful, Perfect.
Some call me ‘Nature’
Others call me ‘Mother Nature’
I’ve been here for over 4.5 Billion Years
22,500 times longer than you.
I don’t really need people.
But people need me.
Yes, your future depends on me.
When I thrive, you thrive.
When I falter, you falter. Or worse.
But I have been here for eons.
I have fed species greater than you.
I have starved species greater than you.
My oceans.
My soil.
My flowing streams. My forests.
They all can take you. Or leave you.
How you chose to live each day,
whether you regard or disregard me,
doesn’t really matter to me.
One way. Or the Other.
Your actions will determine your fate.
Not mine.
I am nature.
I will go on.
I am prepared to evolve.
Are you?
