When My Ideas Cross Into Your Life

You may wonder what I'm basing all these statements off. Through my experiences I've seen many examples that have helped me create my theory on human nature. These range from Elaborate schemes to steal something from someone to simply giving a gift and using it later as if they owe you. I will share with you in this post a few examples of ways that I've seen this demonstrated.

In this article here it tells you how to rescue a drowning person because when this person is in a state of panic them not knowing what to do their human nature kicks in. The human nature thinks of self preservation. The person will attempt to use a rescuer as a object to elevate themselves out of the water to save themselves. The human nature is very obvious here the person is going from what they know instead of what they have been taught to save themselves even if it means sacrificing others.

In the article linked here it says that the shoppers looking for a sale that may save them money are willing to do whatever it takes to get inside that building to save maybe $20. Those people know what they want and their nature tells them not to let anything get in their way to stop them from getting that thing. These are the reasons that a third party must exist because if those savings had been given to the third party none of those buyers would have had such a brutal force to fight their way past anything.

In the bible King David being high powered one day saw a woman bathing and he wanted this woman. His human nature told him that he should do what he needs to to get this woman. To get to this woman he had her husband killed so that he could have her to himself. He was willing to do anything just so that he could have what he wanted.
