just had another thought ...
- again just for the sake of "supposin' ..."

"supposin' ..."
we have all already taken a tour of the entire "cosmos" ...

and, ...
-especially in consideration of the "barrenness" which appears to now exist on any and every planet that we've been able to observe and access ...
- from our current "home base" location known as "Earth"...

"supposin' ..." every place where we have previously journeyed and existed in the "cosmos" ..
"supposin/ ..." we've already "depleted" and destroyed everything in each location prior to our current "10-20" known as"mother earth" ...
suppose "she" is truly our "last stand" ...
our "last chance" ...
our last opportunity to finally "get it right"?! ...
kind of a "sobering" thought don't ya think?!

inspite of ourselves ...
and, no matter how "dismal" things may appear at times ...
there's always "Hope" ...
or "Dum, Spiro, Spero" as some may say?! :)

anyways ...
just happened to "stumble" upon this recent article in regards to
"rebirth" or "regeneration" ...
"Scientists see the birth of a new planet" ...
"For the first time ever, scientists believe they've detected the birth of a new world around a distant Sun like star..."
"If confirmed, the discovery, using the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, would provide scientists with the earliest view yet of how short-lived discs of material around young stars clump together in the early stages of planetary formation..."
here's a link to the entire article ...
http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2011/02/25/3149304.htm

if, and when, we are given a "second chance" ...
i hope we've learned our lessons well!
- bc
