"The strongest survive", they say. "After a great battle, there is always a great reward", some argue. Finally, "nothing happens without a purpose", people discuss.
As strange as it may sound, the fight for survival and all its involving difficulties, actually makes the existence of living organisms much easier. Natural selection laws firstly presented by famous Charles Darwin better perform their jobs in conditions, where species are craving for something and achieve it without so-called "artificial help". Evolution is only possible through various interactions, making the "fitter ones" adaptable, while others end up failing, and are eliminated subsequently.
Feeling fortunate enough to be born and raised in the era of complete abundance, contemporary generations too often disregard the consequences of this phenomenon. Right in the middle of past twentieth century, curious ethologist John Calhoun reflected upon the potential effects of overcrowded human society and its behaviour, in his Universe 25 experiment. After placing a considerably large amount of rats (approx. 2000 species) in paradisiac environments with limitless access to water, food and comfort, scientist obtained utterly disappointing results. The group vast majority began to isolate themselves, giving no chance for the reproduction process to occur, which led to almost complete extinction.
Ultimately, it became complicated (especially for millennials) to face people, interact offline with them and build relationships that last. Overall, let me just quickly remind you that truly memorable moments cannot be created inside your cosy little room by hugging the "total-in-trend" mobile phone. Go out, live your adventures and create whatever feels right since you do not have to fight for survival any more.
