When human existence first appeared, through adam and eve, and then they started to produce more of us to form at the end of every year a bunch of creatures living, eating, sleeping and learning together. Many years later, we became so many that we needed some space to grow. The need of land became essential, so humans started to discover and go beyond the limits they knew until they finally reached a point where you could find people living on the east side of earth and on the north side. People living on the east side of the earth couldn't communicate with the ones who are living in south for instance. So new generations grew up not knowing what is beyond the mountains and sea, adapting habits of their own, most probably different than the habits of those who reside on the west side. By time science appeared and people started to risk and go discover lands thinking that the lands were never discovered to face creatures that just look like them but behave differently. That was just when the word nations became to appear more often. And this concept of discovering new lands using science was reinforced later by technology to end up having phones, computers and all means of communication. We started having civilizations. Different ones based on normal habits that we grew up adapting from our ancestors. Problems started to show up by the time a civilization gets exposed to another one. Some problems were big causing world wars others were small like the cold war. These days we claim that we are open minded but yet you can clearly reveal the hidden picture of every war. The fact is civilizations are just clashing. Civilizations don't have many options like politics, i can be with this guy and against that one. No, no options at all no matter what i do i will always be a Lebanese, an Arab. We can avoid such conflicts, but that requires a high level of thinking, a high level of tolerance and most important a high level of awareness that we once, when we first became to existence were on the same spot. So let us reunion ourselves and love each other and correct a mistake our ancestors did by not revealing the truth that beyond every mountain a brother is waiting.
