Does Mankind Survival Depend in Space? or Is Everthing is Possible?

A question posed today was "Does mankind survival depend on exploration/settlement in space" It is such a mess on earth, war,cross cultural tension by every race colour and creed, under utilizing natural resources, abject poverty, disease,

My reply is simple"it may be possible however when you run away from home the one thing you always take is yourself."

For the 21st century at the highest level the thinking and awareness has to change in everything. For all countries so mankind is not reduced to the level of eating rats and toxic vegetation. Hunger is a wild beast that has no mercy. Hunger is not just food, hunger to feel safe, hunger for security of the future generations for our children, hunger comes in many overcoats.

To grow one also needs to reach outside oneself and consider all the possibilities that seek an avenue for the betterment of mankind.

If the world becomes frightened the possibilities can become the veneer on the table top of a 1950's coffee shop. Practical tools, simple steps to live in ones community: wisdom is a key used for the circumstances around one that one may not be able to control.

If the plot of land is taken from one and they are told to grow something to eat, the helplessness is that of the elephant at the end of the rope tied to the stake. Even the strongest become weak.

Plato is he relevant today ?

Plato is he relevant today?

To quote from a poet “The good are sometimes good and sometimes bad” But the bad does not become bad he is always bad.

When forces of circumstance overpower a man of resources, skill, and virtue he cannot help but be bad. An honest man becomes the thief?

Is this a good man by forces of circumstance gone bad? It is hard to be good? It is difficult to be good, choose to strive to become good, this is possible, life is right or wrong, left or right, and it is choice. It is impossible to be good.

The descent of a great storm may make the pilot helpless, but the pilot that flies knowingly into a storm without honest evasive action is their consequence.

Financial Band-Aid may protect the wound but the temporary nature is that of the pilot that flies into the storm knowing the consequences.

Modern interpretation by mhazledine-barber of Plato, from The Dialogues of Plato by Jowett.

The labor of the philosophical writer for the betterment of mankind is an investment, a potential for creation a product that reflects change, common sense. The compass set fearlessly in a direction on social change.

Change the top

The children in rags in the dump scavenging or homeless on the street look across the railway line at the children in a shanty house. The children in the shanty house look at the children in the nice house, who look at the children in the big house who are well feed and warm on the winter streets of life.

History is a book littered with suffering of all race colour and creed, history is littered with records of mankind’s great achievements and success. Conscious awareness is to look at the exciting history of mankind, learn and take the good.

Then the children of the 21st century in rags in the dump scavenging or homeless on the street would have a nice home over the rail line, the children of the shanty house have a nice home while the children in the big house become part of the community that is well feed and warm on the winter street of life.

Is that not the desire of mankind for their children?
