Thank-you MarDukTov. You make a good point. If things really and truly were appropriately worked out at the highest levels...I'd probably still be complaining or worried about some damn thing! There really is something to positive thinking, appreciation, contentment, positive reinforcement, etc. On the other hand...We the People of Earth should not be blind to problems, and we should not abdicate responsibility. This is our bed. We make it. We sleep in it.
Also...just a big thank-you to all beings throughout universal history who have attempted to do the 'right' thing...and to try to make things better. In a sense...whether they (or you) succeeded or not is irrelevant to me. I've come to believe that this is a very messy and troubled universe...and that the problems will probably persist indefinitely. We simply need to do the best we can with what we have to work with.
Sometimes I think I just need to shut-up and evolve.
Namaste
