change

In the past, people merely stuggled to survive
harsh climates, disease, violence and nature.
We were stronger then, more unforgiving and as
some would say crueler. Babies born sickly were
discarded, older persons abandoned, those who
could not contribute gradually left behind...

We were people who had to make hard choices...

As we grew as people, things got better. The
economies grew, people came together and faced
less of the traditional hardships. As we grew
in education and understanding, we considered
saving and helping those who would have been
previously abandoned or discarded...

We are people who now have more ways to choose...

In the beginning, we all have dreams of being
the best at what we hope to do. We find passion
in simply doing what we like to do... Like kids
banging on a drum...

Then ambition overtakes our dreams, we decide to
do what we like to. That desire changes the focus
from simply doing to trying to do well... Like a
child learning to play music...

 
Those of you on facebook can see my tags which illustrate the story
If not, read names and pictures should speak for themselves...

Once upon a time there was a world. On this world there were four tribes of humans. Back then, the world was quite large and tribes quite small but each tribe sought to end strife by controlling the entire world...

The first tribe decided that military strenght was the key to victory. They began to fight others, making wars so that expansion could occur. As they grew, they developed bigger and better weapons to gain advantage.
