		<description>Have you read Machiavelli&#039;s &quot; The Prince&quot; ? If not, you should. It explains further the fact of why one must be a &quot; douchebag &quot; to be successful. I too find this very sad and wrong. But with the coming of ages, and with more and more people entering a higher state of consciousness, I believe people are going to realize that this way cannot go on. It seems it&#039;s a never-ending cycle... But who knows, maybe it&#039;s the ONLY path life can take. The balance of good and evil has always existed, exists now, and will always exist. But does that mean it&#039;s not subject to change? Why is the evil path always the &quot; more productive &quot; path? Because people want to be feared. They want to be able to flourish without any opposition. If the idea of fear had never entered the conscious world, there would never be any one ruler. But through the deception of ignorant minds, this idea of &quot; scaring &quot; people to get what you want, may, and always will exist. 

I would love to see a world where no one is controlled by anything other than the vibrations of their very existence. The only time two entities would interact would be to progress a positive idea. This way, more people could work together to achieve one higher goal, and make it happen at a much higher rate. This would also spawn other ideas and concepts, and leave the mind unhindered.

Thinking about this, fear seems to be the root of all evil. For example: One man is physically fit, while another is not. The fear of being controlled by the &quot; fittest &quot; man could turn the less fortunate man to do horrible things.. especially before man was aware of consequence. This makes the &quot; lesser &quot; man realize that he must instill this same feeling in all other beings he comes in contact with in order to be comfortable. To sum up, one man&#039;s fear leads to a world of suffering for others. 

But what the hell do I know? Who am I to fine tune the universe?

I could ramble on forever.. but hopefully you get my point.</description>
