soliloquist….thoughts in solitude

Humanity finds itself in a very difficult position. Whilst our intellect has evolved far enough for us to harness the power of the atom, our wisdom remains so retarded that we are unable to halt our drive towards self-extinction. Greed still rules our existence in the same way it has done for so many years, the powerful have forsaken the life of the Sage in preference for that of the tyrant. We are unable to see beyond our own limited life-span and as time goes by it seems that many thousands of years must pass before we realise our ignorance, allowing us to move forward towards true wisdom.
