(Non)living Leftovers

We could understand life to be a reflection, an interpretation of the universe. All different expressions of life, various life forms, are different pictures/interpretations of the universe. On the other hand, the universe itself is a projection of life's properties (change, motion, space, time, temperature, etc.) that life imposes on its surroundings. Life and the universe might relate to each other as the positive does toward its negative.
If the Biosphere emerges as a single (conscious) living being (complex organism), then the entire evolution of life on Earth could be interpreted as its embryonic development. The emergence of the first life form was at the same time the moment of “conception” of the Biosphere. Interestingly, while many complex organisms are morphing through their embryonic stages, here all these stages also remain present and actively participate in the constitution of the Biosphere, from bacteria to humans.
