ARE WE IN THE SAME BOAT?

Today in the world there is something that has been going on for a long time which if not stopped, could lead us all to armaggedon. It no false alarm but a genuine concern as a citizen of the world observing how man is, through his Me, I and Myself philosophy attempting to disrupt the order of things in the universe.
One fact noted is that the people of the so-called third world have a problem and that is a problem fuelled, controlled and managed either from the White House, Downing Street and other such corridors of power.
Africans are often accused of being an accursed people who cannot rule themselves: examples abound from the North to the South of the Continent. When the Middle East is added to it, it is mind-boggling. However, it is always the voice of Jacob but the hand of Esau.
When African rulers steal their peoples' money, more often than not, such money is kept in the West. Those in the West often accuse our leaders of fraud and other like vices but our people say the thief is not the one who actually stole but the one who act as the keeper of the stolen item. If that is the case those who depend on stolen wealth for the development of their economies do not have the right to accuse the fraudsters of defrauding their citizens when they know that the fund kept with them by our leaders are definitely stolen fund.
Secondly, most of these rulers visit the West and their children are studying in the West. Knowing that these people are in a position to make the educational advancement of their people better, why, if one may ask, do they encourage them to send their wards in their country to study?
Moreso, our health facilities are nothing to write home about while they (our rulers ) have access to state-of-the-art facilities abroad. Though one cannot blame those who own these hospitals for providing these facilities but life is all about what goes round comes round. You don't understand? Okay let's go.

When I was young, I observed that gates were meant to keep stray animals away but today, check all the high brow areas and see for yourself. You often wonder whether those behind the gates are in prison with the high walls, dogs and security paraphernalia behind which they live. Does it have to get that bad?
Secondly, the rate at which citizens of the first world get deprived of their hard-earned funds is a reflection of the failure of their leaders to help the third world countries fight corruption through making it difficult for markedly-corrupt leaders to get to positions of power instead of allowing their multinational corporations fund their election campaigns only for the filthy lucre they are likely to get after getting into positions of power.
Thirdly, the issue of terrorism needs to be addressed. These people are neither Christian nor Muslim terrorist: they are protesting against a system that they see as stifling to them which makes it impossible for them to realize their individual potentials.
All in all, there is the need to de-emphasize the philosophy of Me, I and Myself and focus more on providing others with happiness so that we ourselves in return might be made happy.
To them that have ears, Let them hear!
