A Hard-Wired Culture Of Fear and Ignorance Keeps Humankind Trapped In A State Of Perpetual Unrest

We must transcend our fears and overcome our ignorance if we are to survive and advance as a species. We need less class and ethnic warfare and more open dialogue. Humanity cannot continue along its current course. -DC

Note: I have a friend overseas who is a fellow Internationalist and a great enthusiast at the prospect of joining the TNNWC Team and working to build TNNWC Group’s International Connections Service Division. He recently had to cancel a Skype conference due to civil unrest in the region of the country he calls home. This state of affairs frightens me – not just for the well-being of my friend and future teammate – but for the horrifying fact that this type of civil unrest (an oxymoron) is actually prevalent throughout most of the world. It wreaks special havoc on emerging economies. My letter (with some edits for reasons of security) follows for your information. I felt compelled to share my feelings about this matter with everyone willing to take a moment to read this letter to him.

Dear M:

Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you, and for the safety and security of your loved ones. Please get in touch as soon as you are able, either by telephone or via email to let us know your status.

We are eagerly awaiting an opportunity to combine forces and resources with you and to resume our discussions for furtherance; but your safety comes first.

It would seem that the world needs better communication and more collaboration - we will never advance as a species while we still persecute and brutalize each other. There must come a time in this world when we seek, as Human Beings and evolved souls, to explore and celebrate the things that we share in common, i.e., those great things that unite us, instead of battling over those lesser things that divide us.

Until such time as our level of social evolution can somehow "catch up" to our level of technological advancement, and until such time as our empathy can exceed our all-consuming avarice and paranoia, we will be conducting ourselves like frightened children lost in a forest.

In the spirit of peace and friendship,

Douglas
