My life belongs to the collective — as Nature’s laws determine it

Question from the Internet:

“Does my life belong to the collective?”

As much as it is difficult to accept it, as much as we try to fight against it, our individual life belongs to the collective.

And this has nothing to do with any arbitrary human philosophy, ideology, mysticism or religion.

We are all but individual cells in humanity’s single, living organism according to Nature’s laws and evolution’s relentless direction. We are born from Nature and still exist, evolve with Nature regardless of what our proud, but totally misguided, inherently egocentric, subjective ego tells us.

Nature does not make calculations with individuals, only with the whole system. Everything depends on, unfolds according to the strict, unchanging and unforgiving laws of Nature that sustain and govern the fragile and dynamic general balance and homeostasis life and optimal development depend on.

We can resist, fight as much as we want, but unless we learn how to build Nature-like, mutually integrated, mutually complementing interconnections, cooperation with each other, we will continue to suffer more and more blows until intolerable suffering will awaken, convince us about the unavoidable necessary to rebuild human society on Nature’s global, integral template.
