The kind of friction we’re seeing in civilization today isn’t easy to endure but it’s a prerequisite to the leap into a higher order of things. So much coming up to be healed, so many realizations newly seen. One day we’ll look back on all of it as having been worth the struggle.

We need to remember our ancestors. Think of the people who walked across the bridge at Selma, or the women thrown into prison for marching for women’s suffrage. Would they not have been anxious and scared? Let them inspire you. They do me.

Agree, but got to be carefully... there are different leaps ... remember the Dark Ages?

First of all, they’re not really called the Dark Ages any more for just that reason. They were the very kind of precursor I’m talking about.

Yes but the significant percentage of people don't understand what kind of world they could have if they had empathy instead of fear for one another. What will come depends on who has the more determined will, hope or fear.

The majority has never determined the tide of history. Abolitionists weren’t a majority, nor women suffragettes nor civil rights mvmt. Societal change begins with a small group of people, usually considered radicals by the status quo of their time, who simply have a better idea.
