Conflict Within

Humans are animals, same as the rest. We sprung up from the same womb as all animals do. What makes us different is what’s in our heads. We think, we plan, we build, we progress. Human minds have grown to allow us all this. We are wired at birth, with much have no choice. Much of our group a composite mess. Our animal instincts are deeply entrenched. Civilization evolved to offer guidance and control. We are in constant conflict as how to behave. Our biology says one thing civilization says no. Cats, dogs and chimps have no courts to say they did wrong, it’s instinct that drives them along. It’s simpler for them. Human struggle continues from now till who knows when.
