Another ancient highly developed civilization melted back into the sands of time. Ur was abandoned and then forgotten by history, when the Euphrates changed course and left what was the most populated city in the world in it's time, high and dry, circa 2000 BC.
A reminder even the brightest star can expire, and to appreciate what we have, now; perhaps tomorrow it will vanish into the maw of time.
"The end of the human race will be that it will eventually die of civilization." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson 1803-1882
It is interesting to see civilization as an illness that will eventually kill itself (and us of course)
ReplyDeleteLove this card and your thoughts. I can't wait to eventually get this deck. It's quite thought provoking indeed.
