The Old v/s the New

Ever felt inferior to something or someone ? Well I am as a human being.. The old generation is more close to what a human was supposed to be like. I know there can be no definition of a human brought in if it's humanity's characteristics that themselves are being debated upon. Well but we definitely can define what human race was meant to be. The human race was the most intelligent species from the beginning of it's existence. So basically achieving intelligence was not the principle goal it was after - already being richly endowed. What humans didn't have was passion, brotherhood and emotions. This is what civilization has taught the race over the years. As progress is the goal of any object living or dead (manifest this progress in whichever way as may seem suitable) so this new discovery of brotherhood compassion and passion was the way to humanity's goal. But we see today that the goal has been forgotten - the only goal today is to be better. We want better than what we have - better than ever. Humans today are more like machines than ever - of course we find the comparison to machines absurd because in our evolution machines have also evolved and we see no likeness in us. We aren't there yet, but what about the future - as the way things are turning out to be we will become more mechanical in the choices we make in life, emotion is being stifled within our hearts as we gain more intellect, sense and knowledge. Knowledge that helps us rule the world. But the knowledge that at the same time has deprived us the mastership of our own souls !
