Yes, true, but you still belong to 1 tribe. Nowadays we're lucky to have anyone besides family, or a S.O. who we consider a tribe. It doesn't help we spread the bulk of our days along people we don't care about too.
- anamax 15y ago> Yes, true, but you still belong to 1 tribe. Reread the parent - he led with "no enemies or competitors". It's unclear whether the tribe thing was separate or it caused "no enemies". My point is that no enemies is clearly false in "the good old days" (when life expectancy was roughly 30). Tribes had enemies and there were enemies within tribes. > Nowadays we're lucky to have anyone besides family, or a S.O. who we consider a tribe. Speak for yourself. I'm reasonably anti-social yet belong to a couple of tribes.
- westicle 15y agoDon't forget friends. Probably the largest potential subset of your tribe you can form :)
- Hisoka 15y agoActually I omitted friends because I don't believe most friendships are that tribe-like. Friends rarely have stake in each other's success, and they don't share suffering together in each other's failures. Most friendships wither away easily as a result. What I'm aiming for are "tribal businesses" where everyone works together to make a living together.
