I agree with you

These perspectives take us out of the day-to-day disasters we are surrounded with. I live in an area where t the dominant geological formations are built of limestone. When I look closely at a rock, I see that it is composed of the shells of microscopic organisms. I think of what their life must have been like. Even now the modern versions of those small creatures are out there, being endangered by us but going on with their lives as best they can.
