Looking Forward to a Brighter Tomorrow

“Two things fill the mind with ever new and increasing wonder and awe -- the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me.” Immanuel Kant
To be at awe with the universe knowing we are merely specks of dust in relation to the size of the endless universe. However, we as human beings have a moral relationship with our fellow man. For we are all as human beings equal in our biological state living together as one.
Good and evil preside in the world for we either live with good intensions or bad. How we relate to our fellow man has an impact on our lives. Those of us who choose to live indifferently and could care less about the outcome of the world or its inhabitants make it hard on those whom care about world affairs.
Imagine a world united with peace and love among its entire population. All living and working together as a family of man. Dream on we must for in our dreams lie the future of the world. Without dreams of a better tomorrow, our world of today has no hope in progressing onward to peace and tranquility.
We must look forward to a brighter tomorrow as we live from day to day we must put tomorrow on our agenda. Without hope for a better tomorrow we put future generations at risk for the future belongs to the young of today.
Looking up at the heavens can leave us spellbound for within our universe lay the secrets of life here in our natural lives and life in our afterlives.
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Mathew 6:13

You know David your great ideas of human considerations (and I suppose one day you will be compiled all this in book format for easy reference for generations to come) as you expound them here always have been a wish throughout the ages that tomorrow but it appears it does not come. Many a great American Presidents presented their case about this tomorrow, but we are still here where Thomas Hobbes in the 18th Century lamented that: "Man is not a social animal, the status of man is man fighting against man, the state of man is the state of war. Man has no freedom at all but the freedom to follow his own lusts". And we see that more and more today as it seems there appears as if good friendship is hard to get by if there is no money in prospect on the friendship. More and more we see people being driven by money (lusts as Hobbes puts it) instead of genuine heartfelt affections. Where has went the great aspirations of great men like George Washing up to Abraham Lincoln. Aren't these the founders and establishers of the great America? The love of money is the root of war and what we see today.Please log in to respond to this comment.Thank you for commenting Chris, yes but I believe yesterday is gone (the evil that presided over us) I still believe there is hope for tomorrow if we only heed to our calling and follow our dreams.Please log in to respond to this comment.
