The conflicts of the mind

Mind is a necessary tool in the creative pursuits of men. Throughout centuries as man progressed from the apes cruising through all the 'homo' varieties to the homo sapiens of today, mind has been beaten, groomed, mated by men for their creative pursuits in the field of art, literature etc...So we've had the human evolution till the highly advanced man of the day.

As time grew, science evolved with an alarming geometric progression of sorts...Our needs and wants grew up along with science and we became satisfied. So earlier you had man running around hunting for food, shelter....pasture lands for his flock etc etc now everything is available in for wide consumption and a variety of choices..Spoilt for choices some may say!! So when the body stopped working as it should have (ok ok with the advent of trade unions, we've had better working conditions for people...but that's not the point to be made here), growth of mind has quadrupled. So we have wild ideas, creative pursuits defying all boundaries of human imagination which indirectly spurs further human evolution, advent of multipurpose gadgets to name a few...things have evolved nevertheless to say. That is the positive tone of the statement which I will conclude in the end. On the contrary, we have murderers that are so gruesome, people who have no other business than to spend time chanting mantras and beheading people based on imaginary fatwas ( religious extremism is the key word..) etc etc..Let me come to the point straight..we have had an untamed mind that is so restless that it conquers our very existence. During the past couple of weeks I've had discussions with a lot of people with regards to this matter and unanimously the verdict was during the early twenties one has to keep oneself really busy doing something or the other which benefits them in the long run. So its highly important to control the raging monster..
