Has anyone seen the movie Invictus? I found this to be a very emotionally moving picture by Clint Eastwood. A man with many talents, and this movie makes the statement that with some foresight and thinking outside the box a "man" and a "nation" can be moved. Myself, being part of the older generation and coming with this generation has always been "thinking outside the box", makes me realize that this world can change with the right people in power and the rest having an open heart to seek change. This could not have come at a better time in our history than now! Each individual should seek the change wherein the "ego" declines it's position and the "heart" takes over. Decisions based on compassion over "ego" would take our planet into a higher consciousness and benefit mankind, Mother Nature and all the life that lives on our disrupted and disturbed planet. You can see from a climate conference in Denmark that we can only settle on one thing. "We cannot disrupt our present status of business as usual" to help correct a situation that all nations have caused. What will it take to implement enough change to make a difference. Perhaps not enough in our lifetime to save this lifetime. Big business wins again, not the generation of children to come. We have great minds and no one wants to access them for their insight, because it might disrupt the car manufacturers, the oil and gas, the pharmaceutical companies, banks and the Wall street guys along with numerous others that can only think about their balance sheet and the "status quo". I implore the upcoming generations to step up take the challenge head on and stand up for your beliefs. This is such a passive and complacent society, so caught up in every day living that there is no time to think about making a change within themselves let alone one that would inspire a whole community, province or country/nation. I heard that interest rates might be on the rise. What for? Are the banks not making enough money. NOT! But obviously it is not enough! Too bad so sad because consumers could actually own a home, a car and necessities of life. So what is wrong with this picture? A weakened government that will not commit to helping people so they can enjoy part of their life, let's say with their families. Instead people have to work double time just to make ends meet. This again goes back to the "status quo" of not being able to think outside the box to make changes within and without. Too bad too sad!
