The Evolution of Desire

Throughout our lives, it seems that we are constantly yearning for more. We want more happiness, more joy, more love, and ideally a whole lot more sleep. Undoubtably so, this desire has existed from the very beginning. From roaming nomads we sought home and familiarity. From civilization onward, we've desired family and thus independence there-from. We gained communities and deism which gave existence a point and formed government and constitutions to protect our lives and our rights. And still we yearn. Still we desire something. Who knows what the future could hold. Perhaps the desire for utopia isn't so foolish a dream after all.
