A World at War 🌏💥

I honestly don't really watch the news anymore, unless some breaking news happens and the content finds it's way into my newsfeed.

These days we are watching nations playing a military chess with each other. Entering each other's personal space, blowing up buildings, targeting the people they don't like, etc. At first it feels kind of cool to watch them playing these games and observing their strategies. Unfortunately though, these games are causing innocent people to lose their lives. Can the presidents of these countries find another way to solve their issues? Why do they have to kill children? Are these presidents honestly the best leaders that planet Earth could create? I HIGHLY doubt it. 

Is the human tendency for greed and control so strong that these unfortunate events are unavoidable?

And here I am writing as if I have solved the tendency for greed and control in myself, and I haven't. Maybe this is just a challenge that all of humanity is going through now.

How to awaken out of the illusion of control?
