On Disasters and Catastrophes (crying out tears)

Oh how many good and interesting people there are all around me, how much of goodness and kindness there is in this world. They say, this world is better than we feel it is....

This night I was browsing YouTube, watching Pixar-related videos, and somehow, just accidentally, I reached a page with different videos about hunting and hunters.... and then once again I praised all those disasters, diseases, catastrophes, wars, and most of all - Natural Rages that annihilate and turn into nothing all that biological rubbish called Human Being. The Earth tries to clear Herself from that multibillion filth, She groans and gasps for breath. Most likely She will prevail sooner or later: a Human Being does not deserve walking upon Her.

They also sometimes say regarding good people that "this world still exists because of them", which means that "if this world still exists then somebody deserves it still".

    Cry those tears, then dry those tired eyes:
    every breath you take keeps you alive.

    Butterflies as we are
    freeze in flight beneath the starry sky
    but the ghosts fly on and on...
    in this sense we all belong,
     oh, Gaia!            

     And the sum of all the parts
     is the all-forgiving heart
     of Gaia.            

    Oh, Gaia!   
    (Peter Hammill, "Gaia", 1992)

Mother-Earth, you have all rights to not forgive us for what we do to You!
