Animals are conscious and should be treated as such

[Minyatur]

Ah, but in order to care about your impact, you must have some relative value system in your mind which determines the importance of this or that thing. I apologize if I came across as judging, rather what I am trying to point at is the importance of discernment, because it is through discernment that we focus our consciousness in to this or that field of work in the world.

My infinite perspective is my foundation, it is the mysterious well from which I draw my power, my inspiration, my self-hood and my ultimate identity. It is infinite love, all-accepting, all-loving. However, I would be lying if I said that my finite perspective is matched to my infinite perspective. In fact, it can't be, at least not yet, because there are still many deep, intense distortions I am working through and that is what my experience here on this forum often takes me through - embracing the self that I am. 

Thus, all of my posts, all of my thoughts lean towards one fundamental question I ask of myself and to all others: Who are you?

Well I agree with all of what you said.

I'd maybe add that to me it seems to me that there is a portion of One Infinity which is totally timeless and spaceless and transcends the Whole of the Infinite All.

And about the working of finite self I'd add this quote from the Thoth tablets to explain why each inviduality's working is as important as another and that none is above another :

The consciousness below thee is ever-expanding 
in different ways from those known to thee. 
Aye, it, though in space-time below thee, 
is ever growing in ways that are different from 
those that were part of the ways of thine own. 
For know that it grows as a result of thy growth 
but not in the same way that thou didst grow. 
The growth that thou had and have in the present 
have brought into being a cause and effect. 
No consciousness follows the path of those before it, 
else all would be repetition and vain. 
Each consciousness in the cycle it exists in 
follows its own path to the ultimate goal. 
Each plays its part in the Plan of the Cosmos. 
Each plays its part in the ultimate end. 
The farther the cycle, the greater its 
knowledge and ability to blend the Law of the whole.
