One of the modern conceits is that earlier cultures were primitive and that much like children, they just made up stories to explain mysteries they didn't understand–and which modern science would come to reveal with cold precision in terms of matter, energy, and forces.

But those who lived before us lived very close to the line between life and death, and 'make believe stories' would have meant them dying out very quickly. Moreover, if you have the opportunity to meet elders from those older cultures that have managed to stay intact (and I have had the honor to meet a few), you see that they are very keen observers of the natural world, and also very astute in their understanding of human nature. They are anything but "childish."

In what is probably the longest-running study anywhere in the world, it boils down to one thing: connection. People who have quality relationships live longer and are happier. Simple as that! One of the key reasons that we bring people together around the fire. If only we built a few less multi-million dollar medical facilities and had some fire pavilions instead! See:

What keeps us happy and healthy as we go through life? If you think it's fame and money, you're not alone – but, according to psychiatrist Robert Waldinger, you're mistaken. As the director of a 75-year-old study on adult development, Waldinger has unprecedented access to data on true happiness an...
