Why are we Humans Different ?

One of the fundamental law of nature is the Law of equilibrium and stability.

Everything in nature tries to be in a state of equilibrium or a state in which it is most stable.

It applies to everything ...from electrons at sub atomic level , to stars @ universal levels !

One handle excess energy in oneself , that excess energy excites us and prompts us to do something so that we can do away with this energy.In humans .....this doesn't apply so aptly.It apparently applies but theres a twist in it ,which makes us different.In our normal lives also we want to live in conditions which are most stable. the stable situation which I say are various ..........mental , social , physical. All of us want to earn a lot of money so that gives us , financial stability. A good character , family etc gives social stability .Having all your parts in working condition gives us physical stability.[My examples for stability may be crude ; but if they make the point clear I wont waste time finding more apt examples] But the twist in the tale comes that humans want to have this stability but they get Bored by it ! There is a constant urge to do something more and seek higher level of stability . Indeed this urge is in all constituents of the nature not only humans but the different is Human try to attain higher level of stability on self initiative !! this is one of the gifts of God I must say , where did this self initiative come from no body knows ,or why is it there , no body knows ?! For example A tiger wont kill another deer if his stomach is full, but human well, he would kill everything in sight and keep it in cold storage for use tomorrow ! Do we call this greed or urge ? A good question . I wouldn't call it greed , greed can be seen in animals also ! but humans its different ! So what is it ? What I am trying to describe here is the fundamental thing which breaks us loose from eat, sleep, reproduce cycle of life followed by all other species on this earth ! If reasoning and logical thinking is the father of exponential evolution of humans as a specie then this urge is definitely the mother ! Another important implication of this urge comes forth if this urge remains inactive for long time ! Put in simple words , I am talking of BOREDOM ! Dogs and Cats never get bored lying around why ? Simple there is no urge to find out higher levels of stability on self initiative in these species ! My friend Pratik had effectively put this human urge in simple words like " Be Happy with What you have .....and still want more !" I am interested in the latter part of the quote coz the 1st part of the sentence deals with contentment with your present ! The "..... Still want more " is what drives us !
Its this beautiful coming together of this urge and the ever reciprocation of the logical thinking and reasoning to the demands put forth by this urge which laid down the path of making us unique and the most dominant specie on this planet ! Either one of them missing meant we would be either be busy sharpening the most perfect stone tools or urged for centrally heated caves ,as we sat freezing before the fire !
