The Lie We Live

Most days, we’re caught in the grind—deadlines, bills, politics, the noise of daily life. It’s easy to forget we’re standing on a living, breathing planet. But astronaut Ron Garan got a view that cracked all that wide open. From 250 miles above Earth, he saw something most of us never will: the thin blue line that keeps every one of us alive. And what hit him wasn’t just awe—it was heartbreak. Because down here, we’re acting like it doesn’t matter.

Our leaders and the corporations they protect aren’t just ignoring Earth’s warning signs—they’re actively rewriting the rules to help industries plunder more, faster, with no regard for the damage. And still, Earth carries on—battle-scarred but spinning.

What Garan saw changed everything he thought he knew. Read his story—and maybe, just maybe, you’ll see what he saw.
