Extension, expansion!

   One very interesting remark is that the human being is the only animal able and capable of extension and expansion without limits and beyond his living needs. To explain the idea, look at the aspiration of a man or a woman to form a family, to expand their power and authority and to secure their extension in the future by raising their progeny. In the same context, they try always to socialize with new companions, buddies and friends, for the reason of  expanding their influence. It seems that the individual human is by default born insecure from inside and always trying hard to have either persons or materials that give him or her the elixir of security and inner serenity.
   This also applies to companies, organizations, cults and religions, which always work through its members to get more money, power, followers or customers, for the very essential need of security through competitiveness, challenge, marring the opponents or knocking them out altogether of the ring by force or plot. Even wars have the ultimate goal of expanding the territories of the belligerent countries, or pressing through the use of bullets and missiles, what the diplomacy failed to acquire, that is material gains for securing extension and expansion of the power - in any form - of a certain country. Even clandestine groups, whether ideological or criminal aspire for more of this expansion but by clandestine ways. 
   Even, the conquering of new territories in Antarctica or the Arctic, has the long range aim of expansion of the powerful country (Russia, Canada, USA, United Kingdom...) for the control of resources or opening new trade routes. That is the same in the many projects (fulfilled partially and minimally till now as published), that superpowers have in mind when they spend billions of Dollars and years of work to conquer space and colonize a distant moon or planet.
   Historically on the international scale of politics, it has been like that from the days of the old empires, Egyptian, Greek, Persian or Roman, who sought more power, by attacking other nations, to be more secure, have more resources, more manpower and slaves for the very notion that occupation of other lands and expansion of the original boundaries will bring many benefits to the selected superior people of the empire. So that the people of the empire can therefore extend their power by having more concubines, male slaves, acquire more knowledge, more wealth, and more secure good living. That state of affairs continues till now, by the use of fancy ways of diplomacy, media, transnational gigantic companies or even the use of modern warfare to oblige or overcome a certain country to submit to the will of a more powerful one. 
   Thus, the advance of the mankind in the future, revolves upon, finding new means of fulfilling the needs of security and providing not only the basic requirements of the individual person, family or group of people, but the true equilibrium and respect of cultures, resources, environment and human rights. To this end, globalization has to find new humane, just and altruistic aims, other than the current expansion and extension by the hegemony of a superpower.
