Some personal thoughts about humanity and human being. A try to be a better human.

Can we be better humans?

These are some personal thought, which I want to share, as hard times are ahead and we, through inaction, feed (including me).

With the fear of the unknown, such as death, mankind wants to believe in something big; something about afterlife.

But what about Life? What about Now?

We have a great need to care about the life after death, but we forget to thing about now. The Human Being is a powerful being and we have to remember this. Humanity has the power to heal, but it chooses to kill. It has the power to help, but it chooses to steal. It has the power to be strong through its numbers, but instead makes wars.

The Human Being is a social being, and we have to remember that, also. No man has achieved anything by himself, only through the spirit of teamwork. We have to stand side by side and not to try to heart each other. The profit is legimate, but not the promiscuity of gaining power over the week. We have to deny the worship of the god of money and to embrace the values of mutual support and help.

No. I am not saying that everything belongs to everyone. All I am trying to say is that (really) many years ago, when man tried to survive in the wilderness, he used to be in teams. Some of them were hunters, because not everybody was good at it. Some of them stood buck, as protectors of that team and other were good as cookers. Some of them were good in thinking and they were invented a better way for hunting. They gave their idea to some other people, as they were good at making things and they made spears and gave them to the hunters.

Things are still like then; I am good at writing (or not? It is not the right time to discuss it), but you are better driver than me and so on. That’s why we need the teamwork and the meaning of teamwork has a word in every language.

We have to rethink our action to protect our Humanity!

Stay Safe.

Even if we are doing something for ourselves then we still need teams. The long distance runner runs for his own glory, but he/she has a team behind him making sure the drinks are available where he/she needs them. Excellent thoughts.
