Naturally speaking we are far more symbiotic than we are taught....if we aren't then we are the first organism I'm aware of that doesn't have a give take existence.

Though with a culture that effectively promotes pissing in the well we are perverting this fundamental nature and due to the imbalance it has created we may well destroy ourselves.

Without this base symbiotic potential we wouldn't be here having this debate.

If one believes that we are never to correct ourselves because we are without the tools we are doomed.
It'll take an awaking to realise that we have a role and are more than capable of performing  it.





It all begins within a belief.
Taught by the never ending competitive narrative.
Reinforced deliberately by educational deceit.
You must win your Darwinistic comparative.

This low level crude explanation.
Hailed as one giant step forward.
Is just another symptom.
When conciosnesses are left unexplored.

A narrowing of all potential.
Allows the mangagers to get you stood in line.
Fueled billionaires jet transcontinental.
While scientists get lost in time.

Where tangibility can rest only in physicality.
When constructed atoms need be newly discovered.
Why Newton needs a destructibility.
Collecting any truths we can recover.

It all begins within a belief.
That ones separation can be measured.
A successful chart to bring relief.
To it you must be tethered.

The natural habitat of a human is clans of a few hundered members. Is it selfish of a member sacrificing its life for the continuity of the clan? What is the "self" here the clan or the member? If you find this selfish then your answer is "yes".
