Eagerness

It is generally believed that our intelligence derives from the inability to protect ourselves from the world around us and the lack of subconscious instinct. This gives us the urge to seek protective measures - the brainpower, which works very hard trying to figure out solutions and randomly connect the synapse to generate creative thoughts and possibilities.

The primitive needs are fulfilled. Survival the harsh environment gives us the comforting emotion, which leads to further and further steps up the hierachy of needs (according to Maslow) - safety, love and belonging, esteem, and lastly self-actualization.

Whenever we possess the ability to affect others (influence, power, or so), directly or indirectly, there is always a reaction or consequence to that ability, that is, to use it or not use it. Indeed it is up to our urge or eagerness to decide.

Perhaps the most interesting thing in humanity is eagerness itself. There are differences between inert versus eager person in certain extent. Lifestyle and mindset are a few examples. Should the first homo sapiens not eager to violate its own thought not to get involve with fire, our civilisations would have not been emerged. Curiosity alone does not push our inner self to explore everything. You want to know but may not necessarily your need. But when you eager to start something, it's always some type of action that will follow afterward.

In a sense of understanding, the id underneath our conscious is a very crude form of eagerness. Good or evil being not an issue, rethought, higher-level needs, and morality do filter the dark side of ours toward lighter self.

Be yourself.
