To ignite the fire we need to change the way we think.
The world is a big place for a single human being. Imagine a world with only you in it in all its vastness and grandeur. What would you do if it is your day 1 today, and exactly 100 years later you are supposed to leave it.
You might not come up with many ideas. It's creepy when you have to live alone.
Now remember all those people who are leading it or have led it in some way or the other. Only when you step in their shoes will you know that it's not an easy job. Yet somehow they are doing a pretty great job.
I have known people living in their own fantasy world where they are changing anything and everything about themselves and their surrounding. But I have known fewer of them to have taken any actions to do so in real life. I have seen even fewer to have been successful in their endeavour.
What is sad is people with great abilities taking a sideline and stepping back. When these guys do not take any action, those with lesser abilities but greater confidence take over the situation and the result is quite expected. I don't expect anyone to be a hero and take a leap in the fire. But I see a world where humans evolve into beings who are not bound by their basic instincts. A world where greed, cruelty and anger do not find a place.
A horizon that is so vast that even in its eternity is still a start.
This is the highest that we as a human can evolve into. To be there we need to start now. Instead of being bound by what is comfortable, we have to go back to the time thousands of years back and learn a lesson from our greatest beings. Those who left their royal lives and stepped into the vast jungles so that an example could be set.
Life is not all big events but it is about a common life doing uncommon deeds. If the horizon has to expand, the heat has to start from the base. And to ignite the fire we need to change the way we think.
