Human Nature

Humans...
We are our own mystery
We look towards the future
We deny our own history

We are never pragmatic
We crave answers like addicts
Curious creatures
Idiosyncratic

The purpose of our existence
We do not know
We traveled the heavens
The land and below

Philosophy and Psychology
helped us navigate the mind
Yet we still have questions
Is the truth that hard to find?

We've searched fpr the truth
Yet have we asked the right questions?
We've learned from the masters
But we still haven't learned our lesson

Humans...
We deny our own history
Yet we look towards the future
We our our biggest mystery

If you liked this one, you'll love another one I made a while back about the connections between philosophy and psychology.
