I have been pondering with this phrase ‘Human Nature’ for quite some time now. Thinking and wondering why and when people use this phrase and what does it really mean?
Let’s break it down into ‘lamens terms.’ If everything was to be stripped in terms of laws, rules, our entire current modern civilization from us and we were left to walk everywhere, without using cars, or any mode of transportation, build our homes with our bare hands, and we had to hunt to eat daily. What happens to our human nature?
We soon find greed, selfishness, ethics, feelings, and our thinking completely changing. Pushing us from being civil to a darker side of our humanity. So therefore, the beast inside all of us eventually comes out, as no one is liable for any of their actions, as to us, it would be ‘Human Nature.’
Once upon a time on our planet earth we were all like this, thriving on our human instincts. Where did that get us? There was no purpose in life for anyone in that era to live, as they only lived for the daily kill of food, sleep and sex.
So coming back to our day and time now, I wonder what people are thinking when using this phrase ‘Human Nature.’ I have been speaking with a lot of women and men over the past weeks, picking their brains with random questions.
In love: It’s our human nature to cheat, have sex with more partners than one, and to explore as many bodies as possible before our time on this planet comes to an end. Most of the time honesty does not work, so we lie, cheat, mislead, and do whatever it takes to get what we need. Can there only be one? Perhaps for a time period yes, but sooner or later, the beast inside will go for the forbidden lust and cherry.
A lot of people use the phrase ‘Human Nature’ to get out of things or acts that they choose to do. I personally think that when people don’t own up to their feelings, they are running around confused and scared. In our time now, if we can communicate to our partner our feelings, and have an understanding for each others desires, and move forward in the relationship, the relationship then takes a form at a whole new level. But freaking hell, the man inside the beast never comes out. So therefore, more and more hearts are broken, and the love songs keep hitting the billboards #1 rankings weekly, because people are sitting home, sad, depressed, wondering where all the good men and women gone?
The irony of this tale above is that, the depressed and sad people would not know love if it stood right in front of them, as emotional as they are, they would find what they have been seeking all their lives, too over whelming of the truth to come to terms with, and before they turn that frown into a smile, they have already pushed away what ‘Human Nature’ intended for them to have. Yes, it’s quite the irony, isn’t it.
There is a feeling inside of all of us, and majority of us won’t feel this, but have dreamed and desired this feeling for as long as they can remember. What’s stopping them? Well, that’s easy, ‘fear.‘ Fear mixed with analyzing the moments to death coming from our human instincts towards the opposite sex, fucks everything up. It’s our human nature to fuck like animals. But how many have actually done that? And when we hold back on our god given nature, we tend to go out and get it somewhere else, we lie, we cheat, and we get all stressed out, because we are turning ourselves into something we were never meant to be. Robots for the 21st century. That is right, we are walking time clocks, punching our daily hours on a time schedule to make corporations billions, who will at the end fuck us in the ass anyway.
I just think we all need to be more happier, less stressed, and having more sex. I talk to a lot of guys and girls, and trust me as good looking and successful as they all are, most of them are not getting it, and if they are not getting it, the average person is shit out of luck.
Human nature is so much more than what I just wrote above and is much more complex than we all think. The branches of science included with the study of human nature include sociology, psychology, sociobiology, evolutionary psychology, and developmental psychology.
Human nature in whatever study, form, or definition you want to put it, is simply just free will. So go live with your feelings, emotions and love on your sleeve, and don’t look or think back.
