And what is the greatest ignorance?

My friends, we have been mis-labeled!

Despite what Shakespeare said, humans don't "be" very well.

"To be or not to be?" isn't the question.

We are not "Human Be-ings."

Let me explain. Look at the problems facing us and the world, war, poverty, terrorism, financial crisis, the list goes on...

There are no shortage of organizations that are attempting to solve these mammoth issues. Many, if not most are doing a noble job and have made a significant impact. So, if you want to make a real difference, where do you start?

My Rabbi, Rabbi Weinberg tz'l once asked, "What is the most dangerous disease in the world?"

"Ignorance," he replied.

And what is the greatest ignorance?

Not understanding ourselves.

The Talmud calls man a seeker. Monkeys, lions and fish don't seek. Give a monkey a tree and a banana and they are happy as punch. Monkeys want to be. Monkey's are Monkey Beings, but Humans are Human Seekers.

Look around and you will see, no matter what a human has, they seek more. Every single one of them on this planet, from Osama bin-Laden to the Queen of England is looking for something more. Donald Trump, Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, they all want more out of life.

Its ignorance that makes people think its somewhere where it isn't. It's ignorance that makes fanatics think that killing innocent people will bring peace. It's ignorance that makes people think that poverty and abuse are acceptable.

These are man made problems, or to be specific, 'man-seeking' problems. Animals don't do to each other what we are capable of. Because animals are happy just being.

We can't change our nature, but we can educate it. The problem you have with yourself, and the people around you, is simply a matter of education, we all want the same love, happiness, peace and joy, we just don't understand how to attain it.

The people around you, don't want to be bad, rather, they are seeking good, they just don't understand. Through educational sites like this, and other's like it, we are making the world a better place.

Help us enlighten the world and spread the wisdom.
