Definitely what is happening nowadays does not seem like peace, but the opposite, as if those who pull the strings of the world want more deaths to occur...., less people.... I felt indignant when I heard someone in a video saying: humans are too many.... like too many, and the one who was talking about what is he?
Human beings are not moving towards peace, but towards annihilating each other with so many divisions and hatreds.
What is being generated for example here in Europe is a covert war, the mixture of cultures is causing women to be in danger, many French women can't go out on the street... I think you will know about it and the truth is that the streets of Spain are not like they were when I arrived.
I'm always aware of my surroundings, it's something I learned in Argentina, to have 20 eyes and to take care of myself as much as possible. ....
What is happening is not going to get better, unfortunately.

I'd like to think that humanity is on track for a (much) better future without wars I have a nephew and niece who have to live in this world after the current generation of my family are gone...I just don't see it though. Reading this book published almost a hundred years ago, the fear and loss suffered...and here we are still going to war. It's difficult to see it changing.
Maybe you'll read the Vera Brittain book, or some of her others, maybe you will not, however I think you feel the same way way about this scenario as I do...sad but true huh?
Look, I believe to a certain extent... life on earth is cyclical, it's a never ending issue, the important thing is that your nephews and nieces are well prepared and in a safe place, a lot of self-confidence. I don't know what the future holds, but it doesn't look good... it doesn't look good at all. You have to be realistic and not live in a fantasy world. I totally agree.
I've read a lot of similar books...
I think it could be cyclical but we're breaking the cycles...and things are spinning out of control, changing things so drastically that they're unsustainable. Remember back that post I did about overfishing? If we don't make changes there won't be enough food for humans and then maybe the last war will happen and the survivors can be thrust back 10,000 years...and it can start again. Or maybe we're wiped out all together...that's the better option.
It is true, they even say that one of the biggest wars could be over fresh water. Between that issue and food, humanity is in trouble.
Any of the two options can happen and maybe the second one is the best... the human being is like a virus that destroys everything and does not value the place where it lives.
