What excuse do you use?
What if animal instinct is merely an excuse we use to justify harmful behavior? As conscious human beings, we possess the ability to make choices; our consciousness elevates us beyond instinct-driven reactions. Yet, some still invoke “animal instinct” as a convenient reason for their lack of humanity, excusing themselves from accountability. When humans became self-aware, capable of reflection and empathy, we essentially ran out of excuses. We can no longer claim to be reactive creatures driven solely by primal urges; instead, we are conscious agents capable of shaping our responses and intentions.
Unlike a snake that instinctively bites the hand trying to save it, humans are gifted with empathy and the ability to recognize compassion from others. We can see kindness when it is offered and choose to accept it. This awareness comes with a responsibility—the choice to embody our True Self, a self that values gratitude, compassion, empathy, and forgiveness. When we consciously choose these virtues, we transcend any justification rooted in primal instinct.
While we may be classified biologically as animals, we are conscious beings with the power to choose good over harm, empathy over indifference, and kindness over hostility. By acknowledging this responsibility, we step into a life led not by excuses but by intentional actions, recognizing that at every moment, we have the power to reflect the best within us, rejecting the crutch of “instinct” in favor of conscious, compassionate humanity.
