Fathers and Mothers of the Future

Many people will tell you we live in difficult times. After living 60 I can say in complete honesty, "Times are always difficult, just in different ways." I think a good way to look at all this might be to study 1908, for example. If you study how people looked at things then and compared it to now you might get some interesting similarities. If you lived in the United States in 1908 you likely would not have a car or motorcycle or definitely not a plane. A car had just been invented as an evolution of a horse drawn wagon. In fact, they were called "horseless carriages" at first.

What I'm trying to get at is that most people have no idea what is coming and those of us who do see more than most cannot see everything and all the infinite details and ramifications of everyone and every beings thought and actions as it relates to earth and the whole universe. So, the single most important thing if you want to survive all or a part of this century is to not be a victim of any person or news in the way you look at things. Even during the Great Depression people made incredible amounts of money and wonderful relationships between people existed.

Some of the most wonderful times in my whole life were when I literally had nothing but a good relationship with a girlfriend and my friends. Often when you have everything later in life one longs for ones youth and those very free times when one has freedom of both thought and movement and dreams and hope of a good future. Whether those dreams are completely realistic or not, one at least has a hope of a future or a good future.

In order to survive to even be a father or a mother of the future one must not allow oneself to be victimized in their minds and emotions by the media by friends or by relatives. Getting angry and saying to myself, "I would rather die than be a victim of this job, this person, this company often created a much better future for me both in relationships and as an entrepreunneur. Learning how to harness ones anger at injustice not to hurt anyone but simply to create a better future for oneself and ones loved ones and friends is actually the real key to success. The first step is usually anger at something really stupid in ones life and a choice not to be a victim of a stupid person, company or situation. This is how the whole human race moves forward. Yes. Love is all you need. But to get to this place one often needs to know how to harness ones righteous anger in a positive useful way in order to get there.
Remember, nothing ventured, nothing gained. That's life. C'est la vie!
