Abstract
Every human being has a unique set of drives, goals, and needs that are constantly seeking satisfaction. Earth contains all of these individuals who move in various directions across time and space on their journeys. If these journeys could be thought of as self-contained capsules that floated around other capsules, then each would be autonomous, and humans could not be considered sociologically; general system theory would not be viable.
