Hello I have an idea to share

Hello,
My name is Mitchell and I am here to find alternative ways to describe this idea I have about the origin of life. I do not have formal education studying philosophy or anything at that matter, but I definitely think what I am saying is plausible. I spell it out clearly on my Instagram page @smugarfree. Below is a copy of a note that gives a brief description of the idea that came to me when I was walking in an old growth forest.
I have split life up into two categories. Stationary and Mobile. I assume that mobile life cannot survive without stationary life. This leads me to believe that Stationary life produced Mobile life in an effort to survive.
If this assumption is incorrect that means there is something special that separates stationary life from mobile life.
Consciousness requires intelligence. I define intelligence as the process of stressful solutions to traumatic events. Allowing isolation to be the most basic type of trauma, we can assume that in nature, consciousness is basically 2 goals. Safety & Hunger.
Through time any life form programed with these three parameters, will appear conscious
1. Isolation is traumatic.
2. Safety is advantageous for survival.
3. Hunger needs to be maintained.
