I acknowledge that I am young but over many years I have observed people, watching them in precise detail. All so different, yet made with so many similarities, brought on earth to fulfill a certain purpose and made to be dependent on at least one other being. We are intricately designed to feel emotion, handle physical threats and pain and are built to live life to its full potential in whatever way we choose to do so. We have specific needs and wants, preferences and all have a common nature within each and every one of us. We interact with each other and form assumptions and conclusions based on experience and observation, so it is us, the ever-so-great human beings. But what makes us that much different from animals? I can just hear it now, we possess a conscience. If we leave that conscience dormant and keep it in storage for further reference then that would inevitably make us exactly like animals, right? So then why is it that we as human beings, considered ourselves that much superior to animals when our true civilization leaves much to be desired and is still waiting to be truly seen? I may never know the answer to that question but I think that as people, we are lucky to even be compared to the animals which we so degrade.
Just a thought...
