Self Preservation

You will never see a dog on a trampoline, Max or Fido would never be caught on one, It comes down to one basic and universal truth that is innate to all organisms, large and small, that traverse this good earth. SELF PRESERVATION – the fundamental equalizing force that balances nature through mechanisms and phenomena such as natural selection, chaos theory, and alcoholism; is the greatest gift God or a group of Gods bestow upon a species. However, on many, many occasions the human race has either lost SP, somehow intrinsically forgot about it, or physiologically suppresses SP so deep within (under all the garbage Post-Modern Life has given us) our souls. A dog on a trampoline places Max in a situation that he knows is not safe, it’s not stable; Max is accustom to the ground not so pliable and springing. He knows, through some signal (chemical / electrical) so deeply ingrained over the generational desert wired into his soul that he just KNOWS he does not belong on a trampoline. He does not need to prove to other dogs of the opposite sex of his courage or virility by risking his life (or by eating a plateful of pig intestines) ; all he knows is that he must survive until he can procreate. To live another day, another chance to extend his generational blood line, It is that simple. When it comes to SP and being honest other humans, SP always wins. The great economist, Martin Freedman states, “There is only one thing you can be assured about the other man, he’ll put his priorities above yours.” Honesty and SP are viewed in the same breath and with nobility, do not be fooled, priority of all beings is SP. Think of the solider going into battle; he or she kills and eliminates those who wish to eliminate him or her. They, being a faceless enemy that may have to die so I can survive. Throw political dogma and national policy out the bomb doors , the solider is at war for survival; it is the ultimate natural selection for national armies.
