Treacherous journey forward

There are famous battles cloaked in the history of time and yet the fiercest battle is fought unseen. It is a battle that has no spectators, no weapons of mass destruction and only one casualty. And if there are prisoners of war, a single virtual cell would suffice.

This never ending war began 200,000 to 300,000 years ago as Homo sapiens began populating earth and it still rages on today. Eight billion people are enveloped in this conflict everyday, a war against ourselves. Humankind’s greatest ally and enemy.

The human psyche. As each of us make our grand entrance onto our planet, there is no Earth manual waiting to guide us forward. We disembark into our parents waiting arms and it is under their protective wings we traverse our way through life. The time eventually arrives when we segue into the real world, with our parents in the faded distance, still watching and always there but for our schooled psyches to navigate the precarious journey forward. Each crusade your own, each questioned posed solely for you to answer and every difficult moment yours to conquer.
