A history of (r)evolutions
For a long time, we thought
the earth was
the center of the world,
flat and, too bad,
there was nothingness at the end.
But it's not!
The earth is round and
revolves around the sun
We thought
the human being came to the earth
like this, one morning.
But it's not!
life slowly evolved
over several billion years
by mutation and natural selection.
A joyful odd jobs
sometimes met with difficulties.
Among the two million of living species
identified on the earth,
we find the human being.
With his conscience, we thought
he was a being absolutely free.
rational, and self-controlled.
But it's not!
The man doesn't own his abode,
he has to compromise
with desires and repressed drives
in the depths of his soul.
This is Unconscious mind.
We thought
our so-called "modern" society
could meet all our needs
and always find
an infinite economic growth
and benefit from illimited resources.
But it's not!
Now, we realized the human activities
have endangered our life for 150 years.
As it has caused
the consumption of natural resources,
an unprecedented pollution
and it has mounted social inequalities.
A new revolution must be led.
What about changing the world
by changing ourselves as well?
