I do not ask for agreement. In fact, I invite any comments. They can be about what I write or what you want to write about. Nothing I say is cast in concrete, ever. I type, and the words come out and become thoughts and ideas. You’re welcome to do the same.
So, I believe the world is in trouble because, in my view of things, it certainly is. I’ve mentioned the troubled environment, water, food and trade, population growth, and wars that, if they spread, could destroy our planets and life. Ironically, these are facts we all know. Yet, being helpless in the face of this is not my style.
For this paper, I express myself as the person I think I am and have been. I’ve written about being an independent and self-sufficient guy. It was clear to me early on that I was not a “joiner” or “groupie.” As a participant, I enjoyed the group. Still, I related to them as individuals. I was close to a few, but not to most of them.
Although I went to UCLA to become a professional, I chose to be an entrepreneur instead. I did work for the school system and received my credentials, but I never lost my passion for being me (whatever that meant). So, I created my own organization along with a philosophy that oozed out of me. It’s what I wanted and became. The process pushed and pulled me.
So, when I consider the world and ways to govern it, freedom for each person as a unique self may have to be altered. I am one of the lucky ones who never felt denied or restricted. Yet too many in our country know denial and restriction as their life experience. Hopefully, a world government will find a way to give every human the freedom “to be.” Meanwhile, I can dream of better things to come… Right?

On the state of our world:
The responses to our Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, and her visits to Taiwan and South Korea were childish, so much like the schoolyard bullies in our grade school. Just think if Xi Jinping, President of the People’s Republic of China, and Kim Jong Un, Supreme Leader of North Korea, had instead invited Speaker Pelosi to visit each of them for a day or two for talks about their relationships to the USA and the other nations of the world. Just think.
Sy,
If either it would be a good day. But, neither of these people were the issue. It was the visit of Nancy to a small island off of main land China that is supposedly belongs to China in China’s eyes that caused the issue and you did not list the person who is the top elected person of the island visiting Nancy. If he visited Nancy in the USA I am not sure what the results would be. BP
