Just another slow news day on Planet Earth

From the animals point of view, and lower, all the way down to microbes and possibly lower, as well as Life Itself and higher if such exists for it, it is always a very slow news day. Everything on Earth is moving perfectly in balance with everything, and since Life is the most conscious organism here - of all the life forms it encompasses - as well as the most long-lived - at over 3.5billion years so far - it probably passes by almost completely unnoticed, like a lazy day at the beach while the waves lap onto the shore, while IT (Life) ponders and considers ITS "higher", "better", "faster", "cooler" possibilities.

Only humans "see things quite differently". Only humans, stuck in the middle without a clue as to what's happening, find it necessary to comment on what they see and hear going on out there and in themselves, boring EVERYONE within ear and eye-shot, but few will ever mention this so even your friends keep bending your ears with stuff that wasn't even worth hearing or seeing in the first-hand place, let alone their 13th- or 16th-hand version (yawn!), but you nod your head and say, "oh, uh-huh, yes, you go girl!" and so it never stops!

This it NOT a problem for the humans, because 99% of them are NOT WHERE THE REAL ACTION IS - being stuck-in-the-middle like they are - so, for them, all this idle chit-chat - about local, and not-so-local affairs they get so concerned about and just HAVE to discuss - is all they've GOT to think about (yawn!)

Humans don't really WANT, and certainly don't NEED, what they don't KNOW about, and since humans KNOW NOTHING - certainly not what Life is conjuring beachside - they have no interest, "I'd rather just watch some TV or listen to the radio or watch a movie online." Ho-Hum, Hu-Man.

Only humans, apparently, have not discovered the SECRET of CONSCIOUS IGNORANCE - in the real sense of "ignoring that which is of no particular use" - i.e., not looking here, not looking there, not looking everywhere for some more nonsense to titillate their senses, because they can't do it for themselves, with Attention and Intention. As someone said: "if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out", i.e., before dumping the "mini-load of little consequence" on yourself or someone else, especially your friends who usually won't even complain... 'cause they're your friends... so you can keep on doing it... since no one ever complains... Ah, Humans, what a funny lot.
