We have so much, so many resources available to us and we refuse to use them wisely. We overindulge and consume all which is available to us. We become diligent and "wise" when we struggle, but cease to struggle and we cease to consider limits. If we only consumed what we actually need we would be healthier, happier, and more prepared for the future. We would be able to assure a good quality life for many, many more people. But, everyone is out for themselves, to obtain all that can be gathered. We ignore history and the lessons from even the recent past. How can we - humans- ever get out of this cycle? Time, continuous progress however small, trying to improve and educate the future generations.
