Yr arwydd cyntaf o wareiddiad

Yr arwydd cyntaf o wareiddiad ~ The first sign of civilization


“No animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal.A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery. Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts..”
― Ira Byock, (Snopes 'Did Anthropologist Margaret Mead Say the 'First Sign of Civilization' Is a Healed Femur?' 'Unproven')

Dydyn ni ddim yn gallu bod yn siŵr os dwedodd Margaret Mead "Yr arwydd cyntaf o wareiddiad oedd yr asgwrn wedi'i drwsio" ond mae'r mae'r egwyddor yn un da. Pan rydyn ni'n gweithio gyda'n gilydd i helpu gyda'n gilydd rydyn ni'n creu gwareiddiad. Yn fy meddwl i mae hyn yn cynnwys pobl sy'n cael eu talu i helpu - fel meddygon, nyrsys, a phobl sy'n gwaredu sbwriel.

Dydd Mawrth yw'r dydd pan gwareiddiad yn cyrraedd gyda ni - mewn unrhyw dywydd. Rydyn ni'n dosbarthu ein sbwriel ac yn ymddiried bod ein pethau gwahanol yn cael eu hailgylchu yn eu gwahanol ffyrdd.

Ar ôl mae lori ailgylchu wedi mynd mae pobl yn y stryd yn dychwelyd bagiau a biniau i'w tai eu gilydd. Popeth rydyn ni'n gwneud am rywun arall ydy ein harwydd o wareiddiad.

We can't be sure if Margaret Mead said "The first sign of civilization was the mended bone" but the principle is a good one. When we work together to help each other we create civilization. In my mind this includes people who are paid to help - such as doctors, nurses, and people who dispose of rubbish.

Tuesday is the day when civilization arrives with us - in any weather. We sort our rubbish and trust that our different things are recycled in their different ways.

After the recycling lorry has gone, people in the street return bags and bins to each other's houses. Everything we do for someone else is our sign of civilization.
