I find it difficult to shift from a life based on consumption, but not impossible.
It’s difficult, because our society doesn’t think nor feel deeply. The lack of time for thinking carefully of the way we are living is the trap. It seems as if all the things we do every day had to be done fast and easily, without questionnig anything. Each question about our way of life can be considered inappropiate.
In addition to this, the pursuit of self-interest, has been installed in our lives as the greatest pourpose of them. We have developed an alarming capacity of postponing others needs while our self-interest is focused on money and property.
In spite of the content of these previous lines, it’s a fact that many people collaborate with NGOs which make donation to provide benefits to those who need our help, even if the charities’ management is often questioned. We could consider that this generosity isn’t enough to reverse our society’s attitude so far, but it means that there is a little hope to get it
I agree with the idea of expanding the circle of ethics and spreading a higher ethical consciousness to get better our society. In my view, all of us should learn and feel moral values that we need like justice, dignity and equality. Obviously, education is envolved in it and has a complicated but fascinating challenge nowadays.
