I'm a visionary so I see the future as it could be. What I realize as I interact with so many different people & cultures is that people have different perceptions of what reality is. What they consider right or wrong. Their moral compass may be totally different from yours. This is what defines a people or a culture.
Too many people think there is wrong & there is right. No shades of Gray, no in between. In reality there are many shades of Gray between what we consider right & what we consider wrong.
One example people usually love to use is Would you kill a new born innocent baby to save the rest of humanity? Of course people feel murder is wrong. How ever is murdering 1 innocent to save billions of innocents justified?
Why I bring this up? If we are to shape a better future for ourselves & our children, we have to tackle the complexities of what future do we consider good. Do we pursue a future where America is a country of luxury? Where we consume so much of the worlds natural resources & exist in a culture where we seem oblivious or unconcerned about people in other nations starving & dying from diseases that we never even heard of b/c our society is developed.
The best thing about being comfortable is sometimes forgetting about those who are uncomfortable
