What will it take for you?

One strives on the path of righteousness; one is tested equal to the greatness of the path chosen. Strive for the understanding, knowledge, and be prepared for your tests. Life is not a mountain that you can climb, it is more like trying to cover each square foot of the world.

I wonder how far will the human mind take us? How far will humanity push itself to really gain understanding? My greatest fear is that the majority will become complacent, dulled with pleasure. Men have seemed to stop looking for the new, within them or outside. What does it take for hundreds of thousands to meet in city of millions because of the homeless, the poor, and the hungry? The smallest percentage of people would cause ripples in this sea of complacency.

The greatest terrorist atrocities call none to the battle for humanity, to feed, to nurture and to love. As if we skip reason, or don’t know that state. We push to fight, to kill and to hate. Does it take disease to the ones you love to make change? If so then the entire world will be stricken with a cancer, which will be made malignant by our assumptions of our own humanity.

What will it take for you?
