LOOK LEFT, LOOK RIGHT, STEP FORWARD by The Gent

What would be a better way to “rule” the world? What would be a better way to think of others? What would be a better way for our family? What would be a better way to start living all over again? What does it mean, to live a more “meaningful” life?

Finding a religion and adhering to it would be a good start. Hopefully, your religion without distortions would encompass and preach all the wonderful virtues that mankind can bestow on each other.

OK, so you don't believe in religion. How about Stoicism? If you were to succinctly describe it, “A Stoic believes they don't control the world around them, only how they respond. They must always respond with courage, temperance, wisdom, and justice.” How does that sound to you? Would you want your children to grow up with courage, temperance, wisdom, and justice? In my mind, that would be a great start. It seems so simple but yet we make it so complicated. That is tough to wrap my head around. I'll end things by saying, “I would want the people of the world to always look at life with courage, temperance, wisdom, and justice. To bestow on each other, what a rare way of thinking these days!
