Birth

I recently saw a female celebrity on television speaking about giving birth. Her perspective was centered on HER experience of giving birth to HER babies. Birthing these eventually independent human lives held more significance for her than considering her responsibility for bringing two separate human beings onto a planet which is rapidly deteriorating from the overpopulation of our species. This is primitive and childish. Yet it is an epidemic among our species. Senseless procreation, procreation for its own sake or the sake of ego gratification, will someday be seen as a mental illness on this planet. That time will come sooner than later. If it does not, then our species itself will fail with its destroyed ecology.
