" We keep looking to heal symptoms with symptoms when it is the root causes of the problems we should be thinking about changing.
It all starts with us and the thoughts we think and the beliefs we choose to hold about ourselves and as larger communities.
We can see ourselves as random biological outgrowths that have to protect themselves from the outside world or we could also see ourselves as a natural and essential part of everything that we see around us. We could see ourselves as belonging to the world, as being connected to everyone or we could live in fear of "the others" that could threaten our existence. We could believe in ideas that promote cooperation or ones that do not. We could believe in ideas that empower us to take control of how we feel and what we do or we could believe in ideas that constantly blame others. It is, collectively, up to us to choose which ideas will drive our actions. "
