That is exactly what we are. Strip us of our norms, rules and regulations .. and all you're left is an animal. But human ego prevents most of us to even glance at that idea ...
I know what you mean about the whole catholic and getting married, having kids deal. I'm Hispanic so the catholic religion runs deep in my family. It sucks like hell whenever I go to a party of a wedding or some kind of family function and I hear the same questions from everyone. " So where's your girlfriend, are you married yet?" "How come it's taking you so long to settle down?" I hear this every time, hell man I'm only 20 and never had a girlfriend. I'm not about to get married and have kids. I don't think I could if I tried anyway.
It's like I'm some kind of outcast just because it's taking so long for me to settle down and have a family. It doesn't help that just about all my cousins my age have already given into my family's demands.
Maybe I should turn gay to piss off my family lol. jk but I think it would be funny to see the expression on their faces.

Agreed.
IMO we are not better than any other animal, we just think we are.

Life is difficult. I need to be smarter than them so that I cannot be offended easily and not give up. I need to be stronger so that weakness may not be seen. I need to be emotionally well for people to enjoy my company.
I am being my self but also not letting negative things ruin what I had made. I sometimes find it difficult when problems and criticism was thrown all at once but I look up and deal with the problems I have confidently and with open arms. I know that I cannot please everyone but they cannot be changed.
I live life the way I want it to be because we live here on Earth once.
