Dear human being
Put aside your axe, your hammer, or your rifle, and lend us your ear for a moment.
god created us, humans and animals, to live together in harmony on our planet-earth. he gave us trees, plants, rivers, mountain and many other things for our needs and enjoyment. in all our different forms and characters, we make up everything that sets us apart for other planets.
the only thing is that you, as a human being, were made a little superior to any of us. you were given a little more intelligence and more of just everything else so thath you can do more. you, with all the skill given to you, are able t invent tools, erect buildings, and make works of art. in other words, you have power to rule the world.
you do as you wish: you maim, you kill, and you destroy, all in the name of development. but what do you really gain? what about us animal and habitats? you ignore our needs, and are intentionally blind yo our fate.
unlike you, we don't have the ability to create things. Aside from our instincts, we rely on our bodies alone: our fur, our feathers, our muscles ... but just like you, we know the joys and sorrows of living: the taste of freedom and the glory of every new day, the pangs of hunger and the pains of death. we like you, love your children, and cry when one of them dies.
but even if we are less than what you are, we, too, are creatures of God. we also have the right to live and to have our own place in this world. you cannot deny us this right.
we know you need us to survive. take what you need from us and our environment, but don't tak it all. if you take everything from us, in the end you will have nothing. if you destroy us, you will destroy yourselves. so please, let us be.
respectfully,
your fellow creatures on earth
saya, atas nama manusia, mengucapkan maaf yang sebesar-besarnya. dan makasih buat semuanya. saya akan coba untuk sedikit demi sedikit berubah. terima kasih telah mengingatkan. semoga bumi kita semakin makmur dan bersahabat ya.
