Communication is co-existence

Essentially, humans are all very different yet we can have meaningful conversations. This is simply because what unifies us all is our ability to communicate and converse with each other.

This ability is the basis of society, as it allows us to work together and achieve much more with our combined efforts than we can individually.

The ability of humans to work together is especially interesting from an evolutionary perspective, as it demonstrates interdependence. This is a very rare trait among animals. Most species are fiercely independent and not inclined towards cooperation.

Humans have come so far through our ability to work together. We have colonized every continent, built cities and civilizations, invented electricity and the internet.

We have made a lot of progress in only a very short period of time. The world has changed significantly over the past 200 years, and this rate is increasing all the time.

The changes have been so quick that most people don't even appreciate the magnitude of how much things have changed.
