The bogie man

In every child's life there is a bogie man that represents his fears. Kids usually tend to materialize what they can’t comprehend, to provide a tangible being for whatever they are afraid of. Recently i figured that even when you reach maturity you still have your bogie man around. But the bad thing is you are too old to materialize it, your imagination isn’t that fertile any more.
Adults don’t experience fear, we go through panic, intimidation & security threats, because now we have demands, ambitions & expectations that won’t be easily relieved by the presence of our mothers around or sheltering to some place we think it’s safe because we were told that it is.
I think this is the reason why man created lots of vandalism elements like the conspiracy theory, wars, racism & many chaotic practices to accommodate him through the unknown and the uncertain. Well that stimulated a question that hovered on my being for a while (here is another term we use hover), Why can’t we except the unpredictable or unrespectable? Why do we always want to be in control?
Well here is my perception about this matter, it’s the same when men worshiped idols because simply they couldn’t bare the idea of a god that they can’t see same goes for getting high to skip reality or even defy the divine powers simply because we don’t acknowledge the source.
Lots of other examples will be based on human ignorance, reluctance & reckless behaviors, continual actions to conceptualize destiny and find rational clues away from what we call faith.
Lets don’t deny the fact that based on this human nature element science prevailed as a useful out come from fear, fear from death created medicine, fear of lose created strategies and tactics that could be also be used otherwise as well.
bottom line is, man is indulged with the idea of superiority and as much as you boosted this feeling in him and invested time and effort to capitalize on one of the basic instinct of humanity you can manipulate people in to doing what they are told as a free well contribution from their behalf maintain their thrive for control.
All thie men have died in pain,
ages paces yet vain will remain.
can the blind have this strain,
or yet his loss have caused a gain.
