“In the World today with so much going on around us, we all have to see if we want to be a part of it and if we do, what positive actions on our part must we take?
“If we want a better World, not only for us but for our future children, then we have to look within ourselves and see if that future is secure for them as well as ourselves. It means looking deep within and looking to do what is right.
“In order to do what is right, we all have to examine our consciences to see that situations are put into place whereby we all interact together to bring in a safe and secure environment and future on every level.
“This up to now has not been happening, as everybody sees their life for themselves only and not for the masses. It is only when circumstances hit us unexpectedly that we are affected and forced to take action.
“We hope generally it is the right action. When that problem or circumstance goes away and we have sorted it out to the best of our ability, then we merrily go on in our own special way. The crisis or problem has been solved.
“To most of us these problems are transitory, mere chapters in our lives and are to be got through as soon as possible and as pain free as possible.
“For many of the people in the World their problems are deep seated, either to do with Governmental negligence or mismanagement or they maybe environmental or even through disease and pestilence.
“Whatever, very few of us actually care and if we do, what exactly do we do about it. Again as ‘I’ said before, unless it happens to us personally we do not tend to do anything about it. We just don’t feel the need.
“All around us is massive mayhem in this World brought on mainly by man’s incompetence to do what is right. It is as if they are saying, “Why should I do anything about it? Don’t rock the boat. I do not want to get involved. It doesn’t concern me. I’m alright. Leave me alone.”
“Unfortunately it takes crisis after crisis in this country and the World at large, whereby people’s outrage becomes so heightened that man’s conscience to do something or to act in some way so that matters are brought to the fore and something substantial is actually done at long last.
“In the Western World we tend to live more comfortably, but inspite of this, hardship on every level is still there. We may have the trappings of advancement, but emotional needs and environmental issues often leave a lot to be desired.
“When will we as Nations start to think that these problems could actually affect us individually one day and who will there be to help me?
“Situations in a person’s life can, and often do, occur without warning whereby the individual is caught off guard and can be inept to do much about it.
“Then we squeal in panic and ask for help from various sources with the hope that they will be able to give us the correct help or advice. Once matters are sorted out, then again we go off in our own way.
“What is needed is a worldwide co-operation on every level, whereby man starts to actually help man and whereby a support group can come in and give assistance in the correct way for the benefits of all.
“We have lost the ability to help one another and would rather someone else did it rather then us, as we don’t have the time or the inclination to put ourselves out.
“It is by those few who actually put themselves out for the masses that anything concrete actually gets done. These people have a conscience.
“They cannot abide the suffering of people and in whatever way they see fit, will do their utmost to help and alleviate suffering in every way.
“These people have a heart. They speak from the heart and act upon it. Everywhere, all over the World, these few people who have a conscience try to make this World a better place in order for the masses to continue living in a way that they are comfortable in.
“Most of us do nothing. We sleep walk our way through life not wanting to put out a finger to help, but are the first to ask for it when they are in trouble.
“Until man begins to change and starts to see that we need each other in this World to survive and to get on our feet and physically start to lend a hand to help one another, then all will continue to sink at an alarming rate in this World of ours.
“Every country has people who are deprived in someway. Although help is out there, it is often too little too late.
“If we had bothered to find out whom in our own neighbourhood needs help and actually assisted, then help to alleviate suffering is accomplished. It takes effort, time and a conscience to do it.
“Instead of saying, “That is not my responsibility. I do not want to get involved. It is not my problem. Nothing in this World will ever change and man will continue to be responsible for the major part of man’s suffering.
“People now everywhere are becoming outraged about man’s inhumanity to man and man’s injustice to another. Think. Act in the right way and bring about change in the way matters should be conducted.
“Get involved collectively and by your conscience start to act in a responsible manner before it is all too late.
“The future is you and your children. Dare you want to make a difference to make it a better world for them and for you?”
