When we read some newspapers/watch the news, this could seem overwhelming at times- you might even feel despair! What is happening in the world.. what humans are like??! But let us NOT despair. Do you agree with Mahatma and Plato?
Man’s nature is not essentially evil. Brute nature has been known to yield to the influence of love. You must never despair of human nature.
-Mahatma Gandhi
To prefer evil to good is not in human nature; and when a man is compelled to choose one of two evils, no one will choose the greater when he might have the less.
-Plato
Hope and compassion might be the way; not a despair.
We are surviving in a society with few role models; accordingly, our behavioral pattern is -“anything goes”.
Our minds are overstimulated by such an enormity of choice and information – it could “fry” your hard drive; never mind delicate brain tissue.
Our nutrition and physical activity levels wary from near perfect to nearly deadly.
Dear Friend, all the above would have killed any other animal! But humans- we survive.
I believe there is a plan for us. The evolution is invisible, and mother nature is infinitely intelligent. Its just a phase that we have to endure- on a way to the future where human nature will shine like the brightest of stars.
“History began when humans invented Gods and it will end when humans become gods”.
-Yuval Noah Harari
