What is it to be a human?...

 I've been said a wise thing. And i'm thinking it over. It was something that made me understand what and why is happenning.
 An ancient chinese proverb says that there's no worse evil one can wish his enemy than living in the time of changes... We're hellishly unlucky to be born in the 20th century. The old world has collapsed, burying all the norms, principles and ideas under its wreckage. We are lost now, coz there is not yet anything new built.
 Some may call it a freedom of mind, some may call it immorality, but it is just a seeking process, through which the truth is regained. Our ship is drifting in the high seas, we feel lost. Lacking both captain and compass, we need to find new ones to continue the way. We've thrown them both outboard, just as it was done so many times before, during the history.
 But we shall find our guidelines, which will lead us, because they never disappear. We'll find a new compass and as usual it will not differ much from the previous one. Only the form changes. Eternal verities give us hope...

  When being a child and a school-girl i've always considered people to be so alike. I was somehow taught that they were, or maybe i thought i knew it... Now when i meet other people i undersand, that sometimes it is right, and sometimes it is strikigly the opposite. The point is it does never depend on their culture or language, though it might seem at first such things should make people closer. They do not. Why?... And what does then?
