The human nature

With the fall of the world economic system happening as we speak I think it is time to look at other ways of living. For far too long has the need to collect money been the driving force of the world. I believe that we need to look at some alternatives before we make the same mistake as before.

I believe that innate, in every person is a deeper insight. The insight knows that we are not only individuals with free will, but that we are all connected somehow. New theories in quantum physics like entanglement are showing that science and religion can no longer be viewed as independent from each other. If we want to create a better future we need to stop thinking only about our own self en begin seeing the bigger picture. This bigger picture is what has, if you want to believe this, made out genes produce viable offspring up to the current moment.

I see it everywhere though, people are tires of living egocentrically. They want to reach out to others and are doing it in more and more ways. We need to build a world in love and respect for each other. We should stop thinking the thought 'What's in it for me?' and begin thinking 'How can I make a difference in the world?' Only them will we make it into the future. The threat of climate change is the first real challenge we are all facing together. The very nature of talks and agreements rely on a dispersonal sacrifice we need to make if we are to survive. I just hope this filters through all of society before it is too late. We need equitable distribution of health. If does not make sense for some people to throw parties of $ 25 Million when others have to live off less that $ 1 a day. We need to get the bigger picture.
