Human Transformation

Find what you are passionate about and persue your dream. Get a life, a life that is fullfilling. That is the great thing about living in the US is that we can persue these dreams.

Not all of us though, because millions of folks are homeless and many millions more are poverty stricken. Can you help the adult who is poverty stricken? It is sad that many will never escape the life of poverty and many of their children won't either. It seems that it will not end.

Why are we not more compassionate as a species? Is it just survival of the fittest or are we evolving into something more enlighted, more aware, less driven by desire or greed. There is much compassion in the world, and I see it in spurts. Where is the compassion as a species on whole though. How do we treat each other overall. Will we evolve beyond the strong survive instinct, without being some communist dictatorship? Who wants that? It would appear that the more intellectual we become the less violent we will become.Then again, are we more violent than a gorilla? Damn, we are, so maybe that theory isn't as valid as I thought. So, it would seem that it will take more than an evolution, but a transformation. We need to transform, or I don't see how we as a species can survive on Earth for more than a thousand years from now. We may not last 5o yrs. . That's a weird thought, although it may not matter much in the overall scheme of life in the Universe and other Universes. Maybe God made enough worlds in enough Universes that some of them have suceeded where we have failing.

  1. I don't think one can equate intelligence with virtue, or draw any graph that shows smartness and virtue growing along parallel lines.

    If anything can change the world it is Beauty, which is Truth.

    But we like the darkness. Having a glimpse of the Good and walking towards it are different things.

    A thought provoking post. Thanks.
