Have you thought of it?

Yesterday i happened to enter my new english class expecting it to be like any other, but it was not only one more of the many courses I`ve had, it is an oportunity to explore questions that have been answered by many and trully understood by few. "Who are we?" We, and mankind in general, believe humans are superior to the rest of the creatures that inhabit the planet, the final result of evolution, we can control the world and all its resources and have the right to take any usable material for ourselves, after all, we own the planet. A culture shaped on ambition and a lack of bounderies embraces our society. Can we really control the climate? natural desasters? destiny? All species that keep this world alive, have to survive everyday, some get eaten for others to live, and so on, but it all flows naturally, and without it, without balance, everything would fall into caos ( what our way of living, where nothing is enough, is leading to). Why can`t we acept our role in nature as the rest of the animals do? "Why are we here and how did we get here?" This are some of the questions that writers throughout history have intended to answer, but, ¿do we really know the truth?
