Logicless Logic

the rise and demise of society.

In the past, people gathered to form groups. They found strength in numbers. They could help one another achieve each others aims. Everyone was happy and thus the foundations of a society was laid.

The society grew as technology grew. The society became more powerful. It grew at an astounding rate. People were able to lay their hands on more things. The society's affluence was at its peak.

But people didn't need each other anymore. They could now achieve their aims with less or no help from other people. Individual units in the society became isolated, leaving gaps in between. The structure of society, with the hollows and cracks, turned brittle.

One day, when each and every person places self above other, the structure of society will crumble under the weight of relentless fight for personal gain. That day might not be far away.
