Human vs. social — is a comparison even relevant

What’s the future of us, as collective societies? Do we disintegrate the meaning of accumulation and reciprocity or do we just transform it into something more global, more ambiguous and undefined?

Are we meant to run for money, run for possessions, not because they are vain and imprisoning, but because they have become an essential component that dictates the quality of life in this civilized scenario?

Is our continuous effort to have more a threat to our natural liberties as humans or actually help to strive and live in a qualitative manner?

What is quality of life for the human being and what is that quality to the social being?

Are we getting better at merging our animal constructions with the social ones? Or are we straying one for the other?

I keep asking myself where does me, the animal, ends and where does the social inclinations begin…?

Is there a balance between the two or do they repel each other?

Am I wrong to follow one in the detriment of the other, or is my doubt merely an illusion and I’m actually free to construct whatever version I desire, with animal and social proportions to my own liking?

I simply feel the two should reciprocate and communicate via mutual interests and shouldn’t hurt one another.
