Tree of Life

It's magical Tree.
It is Life and living...

It is cosmic story.
Begin long long time ago...

​Its been living here on this planet from the beginning and it will be here long long time after we are gone.

We are not separate from it. 
We are short part of its story.
We are leaf on that tree and our time representing one branch on the  same tree.

If our branch lost the connection to this Tree, it will dry and drop away... 

​It all begin from one seed. That one seed found fertile land and start to grow.
All life forms on this planet are leafs on this tree.
It's one single organism and we all are interconnected to it.
​One day this planet will die, but pollen from this tree will find to another fertile land...

This Planet formed about 4.7 billion years ago.
Story of life started on this planet about
3 800 000 000 (~3.8 billion) years ago
(+/- 8%).

​We Homo Sapiens specie been on this planet about 200 000 years and our homo genome been here about 3 000 000 years. 
Our agricultural revolution (so called civilization) started about 10 000 years ago.

If you change this number to scale, where
Tree of Life would be 38 years old:
38 years old human would be here 12 seconds.
Human civilization started 1 hour ago.
Homo Sapiens came here 18 hours ago.

And whole human genome started to grow 11 days ago.

So if you ever wonder how big and important you are, just point yourself on the map.
We are just leaf on the tree...
And when we go, we will take whole branch with us.
It will take tree of life more than week to recover and half of year to have nothing visible of human existence...

Tree of Life grows, making all the time more complicated processes.
Growing higher and higher...
Is it that the only reason, we need?

Respect our beautiful planet.
Don't burn our forests...
say no to plastic, say no to beef, say no to palm oil, say no to trash paper...
