Evidently, a person is born into darkness. I do not mean night and day. I do mean that he was born useless, incapable, illogical, emotional, not knowing what will become evident in the end. In the most basic sense, it is for this reason, for instance, that we would not go to a four-year-old and ask, “Hey, why are sales down?” He would not know.
With this reality, it follows that a person’s primary job is to find light - usefulness, knowledge, that which is to be demonstrated (like the QED at the end of a mathematical proof), what will become evident in the end - in place of his darkness. Of course, a person may go through life, at 10 and 25 and 50 and 70 years old, never having taken in any knowledge/light/usefulness. These are the same people, any of us, who have jobs and who run countries. This is why the world looks the way it does. It is not an indictment. Everyone is fine, wherever we are. However, the question to ask, now that we can see, is: What Do We Do Next?
