To Be Or Not To Be That Is the Question What Will It Be What Will It Be N

To be or not to be ??? That is the question !!! What will it be ??? What will our tomorrows look like ??? Will there be any tomorrows ???, for our children’s, children’s, children . Are we doomed to repeat ???, our culpability in the destruction !!!, of an era upon this little blue planet . Or will Mother Nature be the architect ???, of her, and therefore our fate on this plane . Never for us to endeavor, a chance to remain. I have traversed the shores of life’s beginnings. Looked out over the vastness of its journeys, wondering what, if any, the purpose of it all. One has to wonder, just what forces will bring this billion year story to its’s logical conclusion. This fragile life we live out, with such confusion. Will it be the forces of Mother Nature’s nature. Forces she has dispersed across the ages of mankind’s reign through the millenniums, of his dominance. Or will it be man and his destructiveness, as listed on the dark pages of history and throughout all its, written on stone, books. Do we worry, live in fear of all of tomorrow’s uncertainties knowing only to well that tomorrow never really comes for that millisecond between today and tomorrow is all there is of tomorrow before it becomes today and so do we live for today, jump into it with both feet into each moment that comes our way, savour it, suck the life out of the essence and soul of it and hope that there will be more to follow, or do we resign ourselves to live out our lives in the hands of the fickle fingers of fate, and the destinies of karmic intervention, or by the essences’ of cosmic consciousness.
