Many things in life are never free as almost everything around you has a price to its name. Prices are going higher and people all over the world have to work hard just to be able to put food on the table and keep a shelter over their heads. We are advancing more and more into the realm of science and technology. However, through these many advances, we humans have lost so much more. We have lost the trust between nations, our humility, our sense of unity and our desire to be at peace with the world. Politicians speak of bringing peace and prosperity to the nation but just how are they going to achieve that? By stocking up on weaponry and devising military tactics? It is of no profit to any nations to conquer/invade their neighboring countries. Once a certain nation has succeeded in conquering all the nations in the world, what would be next?
It is only human desires to be able to come up with such notions. Human desires to be in control, to have complete dominance over everything. But will humans ever be happy with just that? No, they would not. They always hunger for something more, for something of which they do not possess. It is these kinds of materiality which will drive mankind to its own extinction.
May God have mercy on our souls.
