Epistemic humility begins with the awareness that I don't know what non-human animals, plants and every other living being on earth know.
And most likely I will die without knowing it.
If one misses this foundational humility then everything else is mere signaling.
I am grateful that I get to share this blue planet with my fellow living beings.
I am part of them and one day, when there is no physical me, I will still be part of them.
Every morsel of food, every sip of water, the air we breathe is the result of work done by other species. Nature gives us everything we need to survive. Without them, there is no us.
