If we look at Nature Mountains, rivers, the land and sea, if
we look to the rivers source whatever the starting point it is always ends in
the sea, this is the life stream. The river may start on the top of mountain
and then take you on a long or short trip a beautiful, sad, adventure, suspense
and a lot to talk about river journey, but the end pouring into the sea, and
you will see the fish may swim with the river stream or reverse the river,
these are our lives from birth to death simply.
The human development process
is evaluated in accordance with the multiple stages and each stage has its own unique
set of expectations in the context of social awareness, emotional advancement,
psychological growth, physical development. With each stage, a unique set of
life cycle considerations and a set of socially and self-inflicted pressures to
take part in certain elements of the life cycle, come. The stages of
development, referred to in psychology and sociology, are produced by the intercession
of these realities. A range of physical, mental and sexual changes that can
ominously shape the course of life will distinguish them from one another. According
to the sociologists, the ability of parents during the developmental stages of
life, to earn the trust of the infant, can influence the success of his growth
and development (Kail & Cavanaugh).
The Evolution of Mankind
More than four million years back, since he first walked straight, man
has been a tribal animal. Being bipedal, man could not run faster than his
predators. He was only able to hold his predators at bay with the help of tribal
cooperation (Tomasello).
For more than two million years, the initial hominid was a tribal
animal. In the next two million years, the human got transformed into a tribal
warrior who he still is. Before being developed intellectually, all of the
social drives of human were developed already. So they are all instinctive. The
characteristics such as mother-love, kindness, collaboration, oddity, creativity
and competitiveness are primeval and implanted in the human. They all played a
major role in the survival and existence of the human and pre-human. The social
drives of the human are instinctive, so they can’t be modified with the help of
education and learning. However, training can be a key to obtain proper
behavior in all higher order animals
(Wilson).
It is the magnitude of intellect which separates the human from all
other animals and this intellect has developed with a slow process and took
four million years or more of the human development. It is not unique or new to
the human as it is also well developed in many other higher animals. The development
of the intellect was a control over instincts in order to provide flexible and adaptable
behavior. The nature has designed the human to adopt any behavior that can be
helpful and can provide optimum benefit for the survival. This process is the main
difference between the human and other animals. This process is known as
self-control or self-discipline. Self-control is actually the measuring scale
of the human. The more an individual portrays a self-controlled behavior, the
more human he becomes. Similarly, the less self-controlled behavior
automatically puts the individual in the category of lower order animals who
lack in intellect and whose instincts are their drivers (Tomasello).
Example
Water cycle can be a remarkable example
in this context. If we observe water cycle, we notice that water changes many
states, vapor, liquid, ice and then again vapor. Same process can be observed
in the humans. A human goes through different stages from infant to child,
child to adult and then adult to old. The pattern exactly resembles that of the
water cycle as both involve different stages (Brown).
People who made Huge Differences in the History:
There are a lot of people who have a
huge role in the evolution of the human history and who changed the history to
a big extent. Without them and their work, the present world and the modern
life we are living in couldn’t be the same. With their intellects, these people
changed the whole status of the world and human history. Some of the examples of
these great men are (Comfort 306-307).

Albert Einstein whose theories of relativity were a huge scientific breakthrough.
He was not only a genius scientist but also a champion of human rights and a
big supporter of more peaceful world.

Steve Jobs, who is an intriguing founder
of Apple and created new standards of design in technology. He is one on those
few persons who took the technology to the next level.
His vision about the Life"When you grownup, try to have nice family life,
save money, have fun but that’s very limited life; Life is more brighter once
you discover one simple facts, and is every think around you call is life, was
made up by people were not smarter than you, and you can change it; The world
is just it is, you can build your own think that other people can use, which
you learn that, you never be the same again".

greatest scientists of all times. With his development of theories on gravity
and mechanics, he led the foundation of modern Physics.

many devices including phonograph, electric light bulb, motion picture camera
and a lot more (Comfort 306-307).
Goal and Beliefs
Every
person should have specific goals in his life which can make his life more
organized and more meaningful. As far as my goal of life is concerned, I want
to be a person who doesn’t harm anybody. This is the first and foremost goal of
my life at the moment. Once I achieve this goal, I will think about my further
goals of life. I believe that it is important to focus on one goal at a time.
By focusing on one goal at a time, I will be able to dedicate all my
concentration and focus on that one specific goal and it is will become easy to
achieve.
Moreover, if I talk
about my beliefs about religion, I do believe that human is the creation of God
and this whole universe has been created by him. People, living in this world,
have different faiths and different religions and even some people are also of
the opinion that there is no existence of God and the universe was created due
to the scientific reasons. Even human existence is also a result of science. I
believe that God does exist and he is the creator of mankind and this whole
universe. By views about life are quite simple. For me, my family matters a
lot. I like to spend time with my family and the friends I love. I try to
manage time accordingly. I prefer not to make someone feel left out or being
ignore.
Also, the role of
education can’t be ignored here. It is one of the stages which actually help to
achieve the goals. The characteristic which are already embedded in the human
nature can’t be changed, but education helps in understanding the ways to adopt
and adjust accordingly. It teaches the survival techniques. We learn things by observation
and experimentation.
Conclusion
The
life cycle of human involves different stages. The human passed through
different steps and situations to achieve the status which he has today. The
present status is the result of a lot of hard work and intellect of the humans.
In the history of mankind, there were and are some personalities who made a
huge difference and without whom, the world couldn’t be the same. There are
some characteristics which are in the ultimate nature of the human and there
are some which can be molded accordingly. In short, human history is less
complicated than the human nature.
