"Humans have complicated every simple gift of the gods"- Diogenes of Sinope
In an underdeveloped region, the regional young man was resting below a tree; happily.
So happily that the passing Engineer, who was there to study feasibility of starting a factory, found it rather sinister! He thought that he should help him.
With courage Engineer decided to check if he can be hired for some labour work.
He asked the young man, "What are you doing here young man?"
"Why? I am enjoying the breeze; resting here in the shade of the tree! Come & join there is ample of shade here."
The engineer coaxed him, "you are a young man; why are you wasting your energy in resting?" Join me & I can give you some work"
The man asked, "And what the work will do for me?"
"If you work honestly, you probably will get a permanent job"
"Then?"
"It will give you enough money & you can then marry a good girl"
"Then?"
Engineer was somewhat frustrated at the "then" question. He somehow suggested, "With her you can travel to exotic places!"
"What I'll do at such places?"
"You can have rest there!” said Engineer.
The local young man gave him a quizzical look & said, "resting I am!"

The more so called "evolved" is the life-style, it becomes more complicated. The 'evolved' thinks that the simple living human is in fact "lazy". The so called "lazy", thinks that the other must be 'crazy'.
