Seeking Solutions: Random and Scattered Thoughts

The act of social or any other form of reform is worthless if accountability is not enforced.

Dedication implies selflessness whereas selflessness doesn't necessarily imply dedication.

Determination requires dedication and vice versa. They are two inseparable partners.

Mankind has not developed at the same pace as technological evolution. Will it ever catch up?

Governments often govern their own interests and not the welfare of the state. Their effectiveness is measured by the economic stability and respect (not fear) of the law and order and NOT by the votes they garnered.

Trump or Slump

Many are wondering, many are awe stricken and many are jubilant about Donald Trump's progress so far in this early phase of the Republican Party campaign in preparation for the US 2016 Presidential election.

Although it is too early to draw any conclusions as to who will ultimately be the winner, Republican, Democrat, Male, Female, etc., there is one thing that I can say for sure. Apart from the US I do not know of any other country that offers opportunities for almost anyone to attain their dreams. I say almost because I know you will quickly retort: "Ah, how about influence of money?". Indeed, you would be right in your retort, but, show me the perfect country and I will show you the way to ultimate happiness!!

Comfort Level, Emotions, Social Barriers and Dreams

Does one's comfort level take precedence over following one's emotions?

Can one's emotions help in overcoming social barriers?

Can social barriers stifle one's dreams?
Can one's emotions pave the path for realizing one's dreams?

As there are no norms to any of the above mentioned criteria, imagine yourself trying to answer any of these questions at different phases of your life.

Perhaps, as is the case with trying to find an answer to a complex dilemma, the answer to any or all of the above is: "It depends"!!!
