I have been blessed to have been in situations that showed me how insignificant human existance is. Since my experiences, I have been more keen when contemplating humanities total impact. I strongly believe that plants, especially old trees, are intelligent. Now dont get confused, I don't want you to think of a human type of intelligence, but one specific to the plant world. Think about the perfect way trees branch out and compete with all sorts of factors that try to destroy them. Increadble architecture. Beyond that, there are times when I am in areas of old white pines that I feel a powerful sence of life.
And some food for thought....the oldest tree known is located in the southwest of the united states. It is a bristlecone pine estimated to have been a seedling when Abraham traveled out of Mesapotamia. Now how significant do you feel now?
