For millennia, humanity has experienced great suffering. Is it not time to redeem all that we have endured? Is it not possible to transform all the pain, crime, and horror into a sacrifice? Sacrifice for what? Utopia? "Utopia" means nowhere, and so the spirit behind this word is inherently cynical. Let's use a different word. "Heaven on Earth" isn't one word - perhaps we could combine them and make a new one. But what is Heaven on Earth? Isn't one person's Heaven on Earth another person's Hell? Maybe. But probably not. Imagine Rivendell. Wakanda. Imagine a world with the most beautiful architecture, married with the most beautiful nature, we have befriended technology in its most advanced forms, education unlocks the fullest of human potential, including our capacity for love, compassion, empathy. People no longer work to survive - but to learn and create. More on this to come. But the biggest obstacle preventing humanity from experiencing this Heaven on Earth - Heavearth, if you will - is their habit of not visualizing, attracting, and expecting it.
