Call it what you will God/mother/father earth (whatever ?) watches over every living thing until its short tenure in the physical world passes. In the enormity and perpetuity of times great equation we like the lillie shall soon fade away and our spirits will re-enter the unfathomable diversity of the regenerative processes of the cosmos. Perhaps our place as supposedly the most intellectualy gifted inhabitants of earth is not to seek to be so arrogant as to question the reason behind lifes great mystery, but to just participate in its journey as we inevitably must.....

Consider
Consider
The lilies of the field whose bloom is brief:—
We are as they;
Like them we fade away,
As doth a leaf.
Consider
The sparrows of the air of small account:
Our God doth view
Whether they fall or mount,—
He guards us too.
Consider
The lilies that do neither spin nor toil,
Yet are most fair:—
What profits all this care
And all this coil?
Consider
The birds that have no barn nor harvest-weeks;
God gives them food:—
Much more our Father seeks
To do us good
