The Nomads: Aren't we all

The nomads are people who wander from place to place. It doesn't mean they are crazy. That is why they are called "no mads." Most civilizations in history were originally nomads, however they started settling after industrialization took place . They wander from place to place in the search of food, water and shelter. There are still many nomadic tribes in today's world-no joke.

However, I am not going to focus on that aspect of nomads today. I would like to discuss more about how people in established civilizations have started to live like nomads. Yes, it is kind of a new concept, or say a lifestyle, which people are choosing to live these days. I personally have no problems with this type of lifestyle and this is just a new perspective.

Since the old days one aspect of us human beings that is not stable is "the mind". It wanders and wanders to the new dimensions of knowledge and exploration. Due to this instability of the human mind the whole world ends up with the most structured civilization. Now, the funny thing with humans is every generation calls itself "the prefect generation". People have always claimed this, even since the Roman empire and one thing which always remained constant is development. This wandering mind of humans has given birth to so many discoveries and inventions. Moreover, generation after generation, humans became more intelligent. I mean look at us! How much we have developed since the age of barbarians to the age of embezzlers.


During this development each generation has discovered what they want for their world and what they want to pass on to the next generations. One aspect of life which all the generations have in common is pursuit of happiness and the definition of happiness changes from generation to generation.

What do people want in today's world? Independence and freedom.

All the people have one dream to have a good life and a safe future where they don't have to worry about old age. If these two fields are covered people feel so happy. However, this is what's making today's generation act like nomads. People wander form place to place; first, to get education so that they can build their skill sets and then they start moving from place to place to look for jobs. Yes, people in a industrialized world are not nomads because we live in concrete houses. However, if we examine closely we are no different then nomads . We both(i.e our self and nomads ) are on infinite journey to find the things which matter to us most.
