Humans are wild. When I say this, I am referring to our actions as creatures. Physically, we are all just God’s domesticated little ankle biting pests, crawling around some fish dome, dancing for confetti currency and his affection.

When I think about human beings as ‘Wild,’ I think about the fact that we are formed in fluid, yet we can’t breathe it when we come out into the world. We are tethered to a cord in there, too, then it just get’s cut and after a slap on the ass we are out in SOCIETY! That’s crazy.

How about the fact that people kill each other? One day, people (or person) wake up and say, “Hey there fellow human, want to die?” And the question is rhetorical. They straight up kill you. Then, if said killer is dumb and gets themselves caught by the authorities, they have to stand in front of a Judge, who decides their fate, their ruling for the rest of their life, their sentencing. After a life has been ended, after it cease to live, another human will not kill you back on the spot but will instead, decide where you will go and for how long you will go there.

Oh, and if you get a ‘trial by a jury of your peers,’ then a gaggle of men and women will listen to your story and your attorney will argue with a state appointed attorney and then depending on who has a stronger case to make during the hearing arguments, that gaggle of people will go in a room in the back and come up with a joint decision of whether they think you are guilty or not. All of this is wild!

We also have little devices in our pockets, hands, that snatch a frequency out of the air and that signal allows you to talk to someone, anyone from around the world. Even wilder, if you cannot pay for access to this signal floating around up there in the ether, then someone will cut you off from being able to access it. Cut off from modern communication.

On the topic of policing ourselves, humans literally police ourselves. We pay taxes (that’s wild as it is) that pay for the salaries of law enforcement officials so they can tell us what we can and can’t do. Running late for work? No worries, here is a $150 ticket that you need to pay. If you want to dispute it, you can call into work, miss out on pay, go sit in a courtroom with 100 other people who are also there for traffic violations, and wait for a tired and agitated judge to barely get to your case for 5 minutes just to tell you that if you want to take it further in court, it’ll have to be set back months and then you have to go up against the entire police department, possibly shell out major coin on an attorney, and prove that you are truly undeserving of the ticket.
