A happy family is a happy world

If you ask anyone what relationships in society seem to him the most right, he will answer without hesitation – as in the family. That said, it’s not necessarily the case that this person has a great family relationship.

The thing is that when we talk about family, we involuntarily project our own childhood memories onto this concept. Memories of how comfortable we were surrounded by loving people. A feeling of safety, security, confidence that you are loved, not cheated and not betrayed.

And then childhood is gone, and we are faced with a different reality in which we often feel defenseless in the face of a cruel world. And we try to build a society around us, the existence of which would provide us security and confidence, as when we were children, but in vain.

And the more persistently we try to do this, the more negative the result we get at the end of our efforts.

The family is not an invention of mankind; it is the original kind of human connection given to us by nature. Included in this compound are virtually all the conditions for the maintenance of the human race. From the birth and development of offspring, to the nurturing of social skills with the environment.

But society, despite the fact that it, too, is created and develops according to the laws of nature, has a completely different role in relation to man than the family. In society, one establishes ties with one’s own kind no longer at the level of blood kinship and family interests.

In society, despite the fact that it is a gathering of many families, our true nature begins to manifest itself fully. Someone who is not a person close to me, I am willing to use for myself without sentimental calculations. And it is not family relationships that provide me with a sense of security and comfort, but the body of legal laws and the system of oversight of their implementation.

But because human needs are constantly growing and can only be provided for by the environment, the restraining power of society’s laws and morals ceases to work. After all, a person sees in the people around him his rivals, competitors for a “warm place under the sun.

And in truth, it should be noted that this view of the people around us is already creeping into family relationships as well. More and more often we encounter reports of parents neglecting their children, up to and including bullying and murder. And vice versa – children to their parents.

Why is this happening? We mentioned that the laws of family formation and society are laws of nature. Now let us be clear as to why within these laws of nature lies the self-destruction of both society and the family.

Humans, unlike animals, are not content with what nature provides from its resources. We have an inherent desire to create artificial life-support systems, which we call man-made systems. And this ability to construct artificial systems separate from nature indicates that nature is leading us toward self-sufficiency. But not in the sense that we should separate and distance ourselves from nature.

Our self-sufficiency implies using our knowledge of the laws of nature and its resources to meet ever-increasing needs. After all, the needs of animals do not change throughout their existence.

And our growing needs force us to penetrate deeper into the mysteries of nature and create new technologies. And new technologies require the involvement of all countries in their development and creation. And the worsening crisis of social relations, increasingly impedes the integration of all the necessary forces for this.

And we have no choice but to turn our eyes to the developing crisis of our relations with each other. And in order to encourage us to make the right connections between us, nature has given us the image of an ideal relationship – “As in a friendly, good family.

We are on the cusp of realizing today that we have no other chance of achieving a happy life than to make the whole world one big family. And you don’t have to work very hard to do it. After all, nature itself has brought us to this line, and expects only our consent.

And if we will, then nature will unleash its power of unity, which will unite all mankind into one big family.
