Procreation is the most basic need and drive for all creatures. This is something we are all taught at a young age. It is the purpose behind our existence, the justification of our war and the reason for our imminent extinction. This need to survive is the mantra that has been ingrained in the back of my mind every time I fight; for my life, the lives of my strange little family but mostly for the survival of son.
Great opening paragraph. I really like the tone it sets.
One question, should it be the survival of ’my’ son?
