I wonder, what are people most afraid of?
A new step, their own new word, that's what they're most afraid of.
~Fyodor Dostoevsky

(Book: Crime And Punishment)

" እኔ አሁን ላይ የሆንኩትን ማወቅ አስፈላጊ መስሎ አይሰማኝም ። ዋናው የሕይወት እና የሥራ ግብ መጀመሪያ ላይ ያልሆኑትን ሆኖ መገኘት ነው ። "

[(Michael Foucault) : French Philosopher and Historian]

Society and our relationships

Aristotle tells us that people are made to live with other people.
All of us, to a greater or lesser extent, have ways of life that connect us to others.
At one end, we are someone's child.
On the other end, we are the human race.
At the same time, we are part of the community.
Nature itself forces man to live in association.
Our social animality is a fact written in our blood.
Society is a system in which human beings live together.
It contains interactions and relationships that can change the course of our lives and our individual identities.
