This is slightly haunting. The feeling of the wind blowing the trees reminding us of the preciousness of what we have and the flare stack reminding us how we are going to lose it. Also the gigantic clouds reminding us how small we are and how life will go on on Earth with or without us.
The scene is lonely, there's not a huge amount to look at, not a lot of life or activity shown. Just a slightly ominous sense of time moving forward out of our control.

It's more "thinks they know everything". In reality no one knows everything. It's impossible.

I like this but reading it again for the millionth time I'm starting to see some flaws.
Obsessed with facts? Really? This reads like an arrogant newly found atheist proclaiming that the world and people can be broken down into objective truths while anyone with any life experience knows it really cant. (I'm atheist btw)
Blames self for the world? I may be misunderstanding here but the world is out of your control. Blaming yourself for the worlds problems is a great way to drive yourself completely insane.
On the other hand there are some good things in here. I like that one of the climbing goats is simply "built for climbing". Like there are some people who will naturally mature faster for whatever reason of their genetics or upbringing.
Isn't afraid to fail is a good one too. Anyone who wants to get anywhere in life needs to learn this.
