Conflict is in our nature. We love it. The tools change, the rush doesn't.

Be careful of the words we choose.
We love our mothers; we don't love conflict. Euphoric excitability might be an outcome of conflict, maybe. It can be a sweet poison. Mowing people down with a machine gun and hugging one's mother are two completely different things, and should trigger completely different emotions.
Don't misread what I mean by "happiness." Happiness is not a warm gun.
