In the first couple of millennia of human history, people roamed the globe; hunting and gathering; challenging the forces of nature on the way just for the sake of survival…

We battled with beasts (See mythology) for fame and hunted wild boars to bring home the bacon…

We constructed authentic castles standing the test of time for defence and shelter… and made the pyramids to puzzle contemporary scholars…

We used cave walls as canvas to pass on our stories…

We stood against volcanoes and thunderstorms… and when we couldn’t, we worshipped them…

But,

We never worked out inside socialised caves just for the sake of looking fit… or drew musclebound torsos on walls for admiration…

Bodies at the time required no high-protein boost bars or gymnasiums surrounded by concrete walls, cluttered with man-made steel toys to maintain fitness. The natural flow of life in the beginning turned out to be a costly hobby in the end (Taking Gym memberships and related costs into account.)

Now, we are still “hunters and gatherers” of sorts… that is hunting for attention and gathering likes for the shots of artificially pumped up muscles on social media… How else would going to an enclosed gym situated in the middle of an urban jungle in a Ferrari instead of training outdoors be explained?

Which raises the question…

Will the necessities of our current life be costly hobbies in the distant future?

Will we find other ways to sustain our bodies other than consuming “water” just to survive, for instance?

Will we be crowding H2O pubs and sharing our experience on our water-sipping stories through our personalised akashic records?
