1000 Flowers for the Planet - #449 Develop Likeminded Ideas

1000 Flowers for the Planet - #449 Develop Likeminded Ideas


Put two people in one room and arguments are inevitable. It is really hard to get people to agree on things, particularly in any detail, but if we are to become a civilised race of human beings without conflict, living in harmony in a sustainable way, then we need to develop likeminded ideas. This doesn’t mean we need to all follow the same religion, for example, but that we need to all agree to leave each person to follow their own faith in peace. We need to agree on how we care for animals, share food, and care for the planet. We need to evolve so that our values are more in tune with each other, which will reduce conflict. If we can agree to nurture rather than destroy, we will have more rather than less. This isn’t pie in the sky – this is achievable, but only if we want to and only if we put in the effort to develop likeminded ideas.
