No, not by ignoring reality and creating an illusion, but instead by understanding reality and then setting into motion your efforts to change it where it needs changing. Those who cannot or will not have a vision of the future will always be the pawns in a chess match played by others. We have a duty to our individual selves to make our demands on existence while we are a part of it. Even after death, we can leave a legacy for others to follow and build upon. The truth of the matter is that we all need each other in some way or another. By accepting this obvious simple premise, we can then all move forward the idea that life should be about the experiencing of it and not about the drudgery and hardship most of us currently have come to be entwined. Believe me on this, it is far greater living a life with your fist in the air demanding honor and respect, than it is to be whimpering in the dark because fear has it's hold on you. From one or many of us will come a miraculous paradigm shift from what we know now to what we will happily accept. But the initiative to move ourselves from our current status to a better one must start with us knowing where we are now so that we can move from it. I am creating an argument for a purpose for all human beings. A purpose so general that all of us are participants. We must make our world better. There is no other higher priority than to leave a world to our younger generations greater than that left to us by our fore-parents. The focus must not be on ourselves as an end goal but on all of us. Where we see wrong we must step toward making the wrong go away and have right replace it. We know the differences, now it is up to us to have a positive effect on those differences in every aspect of our lives.
