The future depends on us, how we change ourselves

Question from the Internet:

“What will the future look like? What changes do you think we will see in America in the next 15 years to come?”

Our future depends on how much we understand, accept, feel who we are and what system we exist in.

As the pandemic and other mounting global problems show us, we evolved into a globally integrated, fully interdependent system, not by our own choice or making, but as a result of Nature and evolution forcing us towards compatibility with Nature’s fully integrated system.

At the same time, we are all driven by uniquely human, inherently selfish, egoistic, individualistic, and exploitative desires, intentions, which makes us highly completely incompatible with our evolutionary conditions.

Our positive future depends on human beings accepting the need to change, upgrade themselves, to acquire from Nature the system’s altruistic, mutually responsible and mutually complementing qualities, behavior in order to rebuild human interconnections and societies on Nature’s integral template.

This will be the most difficult in America since America represents the symbol, the peak of selfish, egoistic human development, where each considers oneself independent, free to act, free to ruthlessly compete against others, and succeed at the expense of others.

But we have no choices in this matter since we are not facing some arbitrary human ideology, philosophy, or even religion. We are not facing a human judge that can be tricked, bribed, or ignored. We are facing Nature’s strict, unchanging and unforgiving laws and a Natural system that is infinitely greater and stronger than us.

So we will either need to consciously, willingly, methodically learn how to adapt to Nature’s system or increasing and finally, intolerable suffering will force us to do the same.
