World around us.

Its been more than two decades that I am noticing , experiencing, and comparing, different cultures.
since most of the cultures I experienced, are relatively very much different from each other , that makes observations very interesting . It has always struck me that how can we be so much alike in thinking, feelings and reacting, if we been exposed to certain culture in our forming years, or in some cases even later years too experience, interactions can change our perspective.
Why we are the way we are? Humans all. over the world are born with same set of organs, capabilities, and potentionals, then how come people from one culture feel strongly about religion, land and possessions , that they are willing to die for them. On the other hand other culture based human will consider those feelings and reaction totally lawless, irrational and too emotional. I think it is all programming which we get in our environment, messages we get direct and in direct what s right and wrong. That’s how we see societies where education is not common people live by there traditions, that the only way they know to learn following their tribal values. Most of these cultures give birth to people who are strongly followers of their forefather, independent thinking is discouraged as a tradition. Here you will see people still live mostly by instincts. They will do any thing to get approval of their clan. At the same time society where independent thinking is encouraged , through parenting, education and example people get to grow in to inventors, find new solutions discover new horizons. It is sad to see human potent ional going to waste in underdeveloped societies, even though they are equally capable to be positive rational and productive to the world ,if programmed right.
