When heat rises from the earth

When heat rises from the earth.

I think that we are responsible for the heat that rises from the earth. How else (o.k. there are other explanations) can you explain away the fact that the sun stays relatively the same distance from us, yet we have blistering hot days and cold cloudy days (even within the same week)… I think that we do this to ourselves. And even with all that we know about stress being a killer, we intentionally stress ourselves out. I think we imagine that we are Jack Bauer who is always stressed out and looks physically uncomfortable most of the time unless they add a little makeup to his cheeks so he can appear exciting to the next beautiful woman that he is employed to kiss passionately.
Maybe we think that stress brings relevance to our otherwise humdrum lives. So daily as individual stress generators we bring heat to the earth. We are the green house effect. We are producing the carbon monoxide that pollutes our air, we are the methane. Our stress is actuated as gas in our atmosphere. We are the big farts doing this harm to ourselves. Forget the cows on a thousand hills, its us folks…GMC, Ford Motor Company, Toyota, and the like, we apologize. We are the enemy. It’s all about us.
