We Are Guests, Not Owners

We act like owners of the Earth, but we are merely guests passing through. We arrived late to the banquet of life, and yet we demand, we take, we destroy… as if the world owed us something.

We forget that every tree we cut down is one less lung for our children. That every river we poison is an open wound in the body that sustains us. That every species we erase is one less word in the language of life.

We call ourselves civilized, yet we keep building on injustice, feeding systems that exclude, that exploit, that turn others into enemies and the planet into merchandise.

But what if true evolution isn’t technological, but ethical? What if progress isn’t measured in taller towers, but in deeper awareness?

Humanity is not doomed, but it is distracted. Lost in screens, in wars it doesn’t understand, in desires that never satisfy, in routines that pull us away from what matters.

It’s time to remember that every action leaves a trace. That every choice is a seed. That the world our children will inherit is being written by what we do today.

This is not about saving the planet. The planet will go on without us. It’s about saving what is human within us: Compassion. Empathy. The ability to coexist without destroying.

Because if we don’t learn to live in peace with the Earth and with each other, then we don’t deserve to call ourselves a civilization.
