I mean, we know that, right?

So we're unique in that way.

And then the unique individuals that we are, just like the cells, right, start to create

Not just one thing, not just a culture, but culture on top of our individuality, right?

Our uniqueness, our even dimensional uniqueness of time and experience and consciousness.

So we create cultures on top of us, but what could be beyond culture, right?

And what...

is different from us either on underlying levels, like, you know, like quantum physics or chemistry or biology or entirely different and unconceived, I think is, it's an immense question.

And I think it's one that should create humility in us, right?

That look, look how much we don't know.

And then how reckless we are with ourselves, with our resources, with, with human life.

And, and I think there it's, it's important to say, I mean, think about how entropy rules life.

the universe around us.

I mean, how over-selected are we?

How many, not just hundreds or thousands of times, but how many millions of times does there have to be a selection branch point before we get into a sort of eddy pool of counter entropy, right?

Where you can begin to create

which I think is why you say, okay, do the atoms know about love, right?

The fact that anything is being created, right, means there's this over-selection for counter-entropy where there can be a building of greater complexity, of ultimately of novelty.

And we don't often think about that, of how far removed we are, maybe light years, so to speak.

from any other location, temporally, physically in the universe where this could happen.
