The Plains of Africa when you touch down here on the African plains you can almost immediately feel the pains of a life that grew from nothing at all greatness achieved but still the blood stains cultures of complexity started here somehow they understood but still there was fear they created technology science and a division of labor and learned somehow to live with their neighbor they created transportation writing and math they started it all they created the path without their skills in agricultural tricks we could have never grown just chewing on sticks and though it all started here so long ago this area suffers did they forget what they know this is where my future all began here was the beginning the beginning of man we owe it all to these beings so humble and caring we need to find an end to all of their despairing it seems funny that they were the ones stretching the brain and now they need educating when there is no rain infestation of some kind has continually been a thorn either insects or bacteria for even the newborn yes they were our beginning the life that we know we owe our tears and support to help them regrow David Nelson ....
