JUST PHILOSOPHISING - ON THE IMPORTANCE OF LIVING THE LIFE YOU HAVE, TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY. THE END..









So are the less fortunate in these very poor and unfortunate countries are trapped in their, at times, near absolute poverty stricken habitats. 

While the more fortunate ones are able to 'escape' or attempt to escape to the 'greener economic grass' abroad, by emigrating, if they are allowed to do so.

All of which impress upon us, who are more fortunate in being blessed by providence, at least, for now, how important it is for us to live our lives as best we can. 

Not profligately, indulge in wasting the very resources which we have more abundantly, but prudently and considerately. 




Being informed by the realisation that there is always a balance to be struck. 

Whether it be done by us humans or what we call 'nature.' Wherever there is an abundance of something, there is likely to be a scarcity of it somewhere else. 

As neither the Sun nor the Moon shines down on and blesses us all at the sametime. But each in its turn.

That we do not, or try to remember not to take our good fortune for granted. 




Our peaceful and comparative security and stability as necessarily the 'natural order.' 

Because, by the law of averages, our time of conflict, of war and disasters, of lack of peace and security, of scarcity, will most likely visit us in due course, at some time or times in our lives. 

For some people the likelihood of this happening will be less than it is for other people. 




And for this we should be grateful to our good fortune, as much as we should be sympathetic to the plight of our unfortunate fellow humans, who have been fated to suffer now, or more than us.

And so it is that we should live and enjoy our lives and living as fully as we are able to do. 

As not doing so and worrying about the misery and desperation of others, when we are not able to provide tangible help, will not, of itself, provide them with any relief.
