I appreciate your points Terry... most truly if more of us were more pro-active we could indeed make
our world and our own life a better place .
Liked these points..
what we DO and not what we HOPE.. the difference between having a dream and having a career is PLANNING.
Well, to a great many indoctrinated persons it is "evil" to ask others not to demand that their needs be filled.
A viewpoint they'd never take with sports. Games are only one by virtue of achievement and not because some team has lost the last
seven years and DESERVES a victory.
Life is a competition too. A fact that escapes their notice.
Give and take...Isn't that what "community" is all about? Caring for self and each other to the best of each one's ability?
Give and take, picking up the slack where one is able?
With love and without judgment?
I know I'm an idealist.
So what do you propose to do with the "non-performers," Terry?

Well, lets see, on the island in my present pysical condition I'd have to do something that was low key, low stress. What could a weakling such as I contribute to the common weal?
Tend the fire at night, make sure it doesen't go out. Get it cranked up at sunrise by stoking and have it ready for morning meal. Gather small loads of firewood, sort them for building said fire. Stire the food pot, make sure it doesen't boil over. Baby sit any kids that may have survived, in order to free those with stronger abilities to do the grunt work, on and on, and on. In otherwords somehow, someway make myself usefull in order to have a place at the table. That's called having a work ethic.
What does a parisite do? Nothing, but they make themselves seem they are doing. Using any kind of deception in their tool box. Some parisites hide out. When the dinner gong bangs their they are elbowing their seat at the table.
To me it's not the strong verses the weak, it's rather those who are willing to contrbute whatever they can verses the true parisite.
