Our parents - wonderful people. Without them, there would not be us, and only for this should respect those who gave us life. But it would be wrong to try to copy their lives. We are mindful of the fact that they have done for us. But we do not live in their time, do not confess their value. We are busy building a life. Otherwise - humanity would be passed around in a circle. We would be faced with the same problems without trying to solve them. It would be possible to progress as a fact? Hardly.
But it is possible to reconsider the scale. Each of us is a member of a particular state. Everyone has their own beliefs, their own unique set of genes (characteristic of a particular race), political preferences and tastes. Our intelligence, our limited perception, can not allow us to perceive the world more widely. We know ourselves only as part of a nation, ethnic group, nation. It is difficult to imagine a seven billion people who live on the same planet. Their tastes, their principles, guidelines, desires and interests. And yet, we are part of a single system.
And each of us made mistakes in the past. Our ancestors also were not ideal. Local conflicts, major contentions, the desire to dominate - all excellent mechanisms for survival. But not for life. After all, we - social. We can not live without the same people. We lose our moral values and culture. Destroyed himself as a person. Let's become a functional unit, which tends to stretch the time as long as possible, but not bring significant benefits.
But humanity does not strive for perfection. The old error, we perceive not as a field for work, and as a pretext for the next contention. Racial hatred, nationalism, loyalty to the old ideals, reluctance to move forward. Yes, we must respect the past. We must appreciate the ancestors, because they gave us the opportunity to develop their business. But ask yourself if they would like the fact that we have continued their war? Killing each other only for the fact that the split opinions and tastes? Killing for the sake of evidence: whose language is better, whose nation is perfect, whose country grander? Too much blood has been spilled on the pages of history. It took too much of it in the ground. The land that the citizens of each country defend their lives fighting for the extra meters. Their feat is certainly worthy of admiration and memory. But for the sake of what is happening? For what would be their children again raised the weapon? Hardly. We can afford to leave the conflicts of the past. We can effectively defeat your enemies. And the most efficient way - make them friends. Not for himself, or the country of the future. No.
For those who like peace and unity.
