If we learn whenever something should teach us a lesson, this current pandemic wouldn’t have happened. If we learn the lesson this pandemic teaches, the next pandemic that absolutely will happen also shouldn’t have happened.
It is absolutely true that life, including humans, have learned to adapt, but evolution and nature don't give a shit about how long any species adapts, ultimately all rides end. The only thing humans can do, is the same thing all other life does, seak to extend the ride as long as possible. The dinosours had a far longer run, but a meateor took them out, and ultimately, our sun will fry us in some way killing all life on this planet.
I love a good bed time story.
