The theory of evolution tells us that all things evolved from single-celled life. The beginning of life is a pure, no thought, no desire, only instinct. Life and death are not actually a measure. There is no consciousness when you live, and there is no consciousness when you die. The matter of life and death is nothing special to simple single cells. Perhaps their destiny to live is to use their nutrients to support the continuation of the entire biological chain. With the change of geographical environment, the intervention of climate, the catalysis of time, life becomes complex in complex factors and becomes diverse under various conditions. Each life creates its own miracles in its own field. Male emperor penguins have to endure 4 months of long darkness and freezing temperatures of minus 70 degrees to incubate their eggs; lily-feathered cranes fly over the Himalayas in search of habitat; Amazon dolphins give "diamonds" during courtship; polar bears hunt Swimming for thousands of miles and finally getting lost; Humpback whales have to endure starvation for 5 months to feed their young; Cicadas crawling in the mud for 17 years and seeing the sun is the last swan song... At this stage of life development, living is not just a simple mission. They start to think, start to choose, and start to open up more space for their own existence. But the feelings at this time are also simple and almost pale, which is also a rhythm based on instinct. In fact, the purer the feelings should be, the closer they are to instinct. This urge to skip thinking is the secret of survival that is engraved in the genes and passed down from generation to generation. If living is the general yearning, then death seems to be an unavoidable fear. However, the rules of nature are so cruel. Life corresponds to a lot of death. The birth and growth of life are based on the price of death. Therefore, when everything ends and turns into dust, returning to nature is also a kind of destiny. When watching "Earth Pulse", the mentality is humble and reverent. Every animal that survives the constraints of the food chain is the best of their species, and being alive is their reward and an infinite loop of survival games. Half of the newly born polar bears die in the first year, and the sea turtles that break out of their shells are easily drowned in the roaring waves. From the moment they are born, they are naturally selected and cruelly eliminated. Perhaps the creator has his own way of balancing, species with high birth rates have high mortality rates, and species with low population numbers are higher in the food chain. This just right arrangement seems to be the most beautiful overall planning problem. Looking at the trajectory of all life as a whole, there is no difference in essence from species to species. It's all about survival, it's all about living. Based on the highest goal of living, various forms and behaviors that are unique to the individual but similar in nature can be derived. Respect every life and respect every species. After all, they work harder than anyone else when it comes to living.
