Watching David Attenborough's First Life I was fascinated to see the first creatures struggle from sea onto land, making heroic efforts to breath, move and survive in an utterly new and hostile environment.
Completely unaware of what they were doing, they are none-the-less the hero’s of evolution, and we the recipients. If they could have thought, if they had been able to appreciate the gravity and the slim chance of success their efforts had, most I believe would simply have slipped back into the ocean.
Today, right now we are making valiant efforts to evolve and adapt to an utterly new environment. Many will fail, but all attempts are needed, because in the struggle to adapt, learn and develop, quantity counts.
But we have the nuke of evolutionary armament. We have a developed brain which observes, reasons and re-wires, constantly adapting and changing.
It’s not a given though, it’s a trained, developed and mastered capacity.
