Young people need to remember what and where they are in this... universe. In fact, many of us need to recognize just how small we really are in this life. Much of what we believe we were taught to believe. It is a rare instance when learning about what is a "staple" form of learning (God, He with the most wins, Everything the government says is right and true, your/my religion is best because..., it's quite the list) and concluding the whole thing was and is nothing more than a sham. Book stores are still filled with self-help this and self help that. It seems everybody needs to be seen and heard. But no matter what we do in all our self importance, all our judgments and grandiose ideas, nothing can change the fact that we all live for about 75 years and then we become part of the earth which is very, very old. The earth herself is but a minute speck in a vastness nobody can possibly comprehend and things don't matter. Man is an explorer, but as far as he goes now is his television screen. Mankind is more alone in this condition than he has ever been before in the history of humanity.
