We also communicate the sounds we make into symbols which we can perceive visually and understand.
Our auditory forms of this communication are called languages, and many spoken, however if 2 different people, speak 2 different languages they will struggle to communicate.
We get the energy to live our lives by consuming other organisms, some get their energy directly from our star, and some are much more like us. While our bodies are fueled by the consumption of other organisms, our society is currently fueled by hydrocarbon compounds that we find inside our planet, they are burnt to produce light, goods, communication and transport us around our planet.
We are all mortal, we will all die so we must pass our genetic information to the next generation, 2 humans are involved in this process, a male deposits his genetic material inside a female & they mix together to create a new human. This actually happens to be very favorable things to do on our planet, on average men think about this process around 19 per day.
Humanity likes to bond together in groups, some of which lie in geographical defined areas, called countries. A country contain people who are led by the same government, countries can also go to war, where humans attempt to kill humans in that country in order to bring that government. War is recognized in our world as a brutality, yet we continue to practice it. Now days most disagreements cause conflict, not just on such a big scale, but as communities and discrimination against everything from race to gender to your personality and appearance, and on the deity you believe in (which if you didn’t know are all powerful leaders that control everything, but don’t let themselves be know apart from indirectly). However it is worth noting that war has been a key element in the continuing development of our civilization.
Conflict also arouses from greed. Society functions on the trading of something called money. Presented by nothing other than metal disks, pieces of paper & more frequently just a series of numbers kept track in our global network, without money it is difficult to acquire food, shelter & other basic needs but still people die because of the lack of it, whereas some people have billions of this value but nothing to do with it, other than waste it on unnecessary luxuries. Most people find this troubling but fail to find a successful alternative.
We’re running low fresh water, and the hydrocarbons that power our planet, but alternatives are too dangerous or not feasible. People die constantly every day and we are now completely reliant on technology.
Now believe it or not, I did not write this speech with the sole intension of an alien invasion, I’m actually trying to highlight how advanced human beings are, yet how as an entire unit of a population we’ve managed to waste talent, have unnecessary conflicts & struggle with simple survival.
Thank-you for listening.
