Tomorrow

… We now live in a world where inevitable discoveries and simultaneous epiphanies are commonplace among various peoples around the world.
… Perhaps the exceptional mind of today may be the average of tomorrow.
… We have failed to put in place adequate opportunities that allow the individual to explore and succeed. We have failed in fully helping those with unique gifts, talents, skills, and abilities to explore and succeed
… We have failed to cultivate their unique areas as a result
… One of our most valuable assets for the future is what our future generations can create.
… Therefore, education must be thought of as an investment in the future and not as a current expense.
… We need to invest in the future by investing in people.
… Providing educational opportunities or access to training today can help ensure less dependency on a society tomorrow.
… For security and balance in the future, ensuring greater access to education or skills training for all must take more of a priority in our lives.
… Another failure of ours is that we promise things that will never come. I believe one aspect that is contributing to the failure of society is that our younger generations no longer have faith in our promises. We must earn back the faith of our future. …

… It is crucial that we have the future resources we need for our society and a stable environment for economic livelihoods in the future.
… Natural resources can be viewed as a savings account. If our savings account is sufficient and we simply live off the interest and use only what we need without depleting the principal, then the account could theoretically be around forever for us to utilize. However, if we start living beyond our means and increasingly use the principal, then
… our account will be zero. ZERO.

… Living in the world of tomorrow does not mean the denial or abandonment of our modern conveniences and pleasures. However, we may have to modify or adjust the ways in which we access those conveniences or pleasures.
… In fact, the world of tomorrow can have more modern conveniences with less drain on natural resources.
…We must also rethink what we defend ourselves against. We must not only think of defending ourselves from others, but also think of defending our futures from the reality of the progression of the events we ourselves create and those that naturally occur in the world. We must defend ourselves from the actions resulting from our own myopic visions and aspirations. …

… we must make an honest effort to think about the community before ourselves. We must all ask ourselves: “What kind of world do I want to leave behind after I am gone?” …
