I think in western culture we complicate life, somewhat as well in eastern culture, however if you ask me, I believe living with nature back in the day, like 1600’s America sounds like heaven. Just humans working in small groups working for food, and the bond must have been very strong. Now a days, we have all these “status” stresses and ton of “political” struggle. I don’t know simpler times just seem more pleasant. (Of course it’s not like we can’t handle our current society)
I’m going to go with “life is complicated”
Because even for animals there are daily stressors and surviving although from our perspective might seem a burden in todays global economic society, nature’s routine offers plenty of complex situations. Warning, this is a graphic video of nature at it’s best or worst
