Human Burden

We, humans, are said to be 

the best invention of evolution. 

We got reason and feelings. 

We make choices. 

When the Universe/God/Gargamel/Whoever made us, such a powerful and promising creation, 

He put a dark ingredient in this unique recipe: 

Self-destruction.

Homo

homini

lupus

est.

Alcohol is bad for us: We love it! We drink it with such a pleasure, it's pitiable.

Sugar is venom: We crave for it! We can't get enough of it. Chocolate! Ice Cream! Candies! Biscuits!

Someone doesn't love you? You'll suffer and hope and run after him/her stooping and destroying yourself.

Whatever is dangerous

poisonous

forbidden

or hurts us.

We want it.

We need it.

We eat

use

drink

buy

get it.

We just can't help ourselves.

That's the Human burden.

Keeping ourselves alive.
