Another day passes in this fucked up realm called existence. 10,000 feet away I see a boxy shaped machine traveling at incrdible speeds up a 1000 foot incline. As the white figure slowly climbs I wonder at what point did we go from struggling to survive, to struggling to stay busy. Was it a gradual change, like the life cycle of a star? Or was it immediate, like Darwin purposed in his theory of natural selection. Humanity wasn't always great like it is today, at one point we were the underdogs. Equiped with a keen intellect, and opposed digits we took to using our unique skills to survive. Now, we dominate this land. We control almost all of the land, and the air surrounding the planet as well. To buy food we no longer have to track animals, set traps, build tools, plant our crops. Instead we drive to the grocery store for those things. BLah blah everyone knows what real conveniences we have now-a-days. I don't think anyone really thinks about, or appreciates what our ancestors have done for us, no no Not my ancestors, or your ancestors. The people I am referring to are OUR ancestors. The humans who stuck through all kinds of shit, who had to raise children without the medicine and doctors we have today. Whose jobs were to survive, not the vise-versa that we see where people find jobs so that they can survive. We have holidays remembering people like C. Columbus, or ML. KING. But we aren't forced to remember the poor souls who laid the foundation for us today, the reasons we did hae C. Columbus, ML King, or any presidents. Now I know there are going to be some of Gods advocates who wil say that god planned for it to be like that. I call Bullshit and Shenanigans on them. We endured because we are adaptable, we change with the changing environment.

My point in this is giving a shout out to erommph, the old fashioned man who was probably more ape-like by todays standards than human.
