Static

Mindless chatter.
Cars whizzing by
Buzz of electricity
Honking horns
and 7 billion people filling their  their brains with things they think are important.
What we use as our definition of higher intellect,
or how we differ from a monkey or a pig is our ability of organized communication. Even this "Miracle", evolution has bestowed upon us we have turned into an over used past time, as usual. Most of the things we babble on about is useless material. What we did the night before, stories from our childhood, who's going out with who, the newest book/ TV show/ vine, or the make-up routine we had used that day. Some sort of "entertaining" piece of drama our brains could latch onto and become absolutely enthralled with. These minuscule topic fill up our brain and consume all of our attention making it appear that what we say has some impact on anything, somehow. We think what we were saying is important and we misuse the gift of advanced communications. Bee's have hundreds of dances and movements to represent there alphabet. Can you imagine humans dancing around all the time and the complexity and the confusion if someone were to slip up. How impatient we would become from the long and drawn out movement to represent water. When now we can just breathe CO2 through our voice boxes to say 2 simple syllables "wa-ter". Would we even be the humans as we know it if we did not have the communication we do? I don't think we would. I think Americans are very un-thankful for what they are given and are naturally a pessimistic people. But the simple things that people skip over are the things that shape us. But those are also the first to be forgotten.
