Frogs and the limited future.

November 3rd, 2009 § 36 comments

Are we not like frogs in slowly boiling water ?

We seem to lost our capacity to sense critical changes around us until it’s too late. Humankind’s current unwillingness to resolve fatal crises, such as climate change, deterioration of nature and radical wealth disparity, will severely limit our future possibilities.

However, human beings act as nothing is going to happen and carelessly put blinded hopes into the future of infinite possibilities.

Yet our future is not infinite, it is consecutively constrained by our present behaviors. The exact outcome is unknown but its boundary can be sensed. Hidden deeply in our heart, we all sense fear in the emerging future.

It is the purpose of us to play a part in shifting the future away from this dismal path.
