So the art is really to focus on world peace at all times, keep people collected and together. That is what i try to do.

But when war is thrown at you, it's hard to stay peaceful. Some times, aggressive acts can be a strategy to get authorities' attention when they are placid and lazy.


Something I agree with Tzu on whole-heartedly is leading by example

You can't inspire through force.

World peace is an unobtainable goal that only breeds frustration. reasonable and reachable goals lead to results as we've seen over the last few decades

Something we all can do is be humble enough to know that we all know very little and lead an individual life of growth and compassion that inspires those around us to do and be better

The ego wants immediate impact and a reward of validation but that's not how things typically improve and doesn't represent much wisdom in my view

in the future we will live in a techno utopian society characterized by an abundance of resources, controlled population, high modified intelligence, and a limited amount of ego driven pursuits to choose from.

also fuck nietzsche and dostoyevsky.

It was very easy for Jesus to love on the cross when war and torture was thrown at him.

Aggressive acts are not a strategy, they are the wrong way to do things. Learn to love your enemies Taurean using the example Jesus used when he laid his life down for you. Maybe then will you stop making posts like this one and your GH threads.
