Plots of fertile soil and a body of water would be near for easy access to…

Humans have learned that to achieve happiness is to work hard and to find love in yourself before finding it in another. We have come a long way from what our ancestors thought we would be; that a woman would be nothing if she did not have a man by her and a man would not be a man if he didn’t sleep with many women.
