The opportunities we are given
Identify the foundations we accept, to govern our lives. There are a variety of foundations {disciplines in society} that turn or direct or use the decisions of people to create the realities of society.  One such decision is:  how many of earth’s resources are you, or us, entitled too? How many must be left for the next generation? Important because that answer determines how long humanity will survive on this planet.  Without resources we all die.  Do you not depend upon “certain things to exist”, which then give you a job, or happiness, or children:  etc? so does every generation, and like you, even if they have everything else;  the loss of one little thing such as water, or oxygen, or food; is enough to make them die for what you did, or refused to do. one little thing, can create a mutilation that removes "arms or legs or minds;  AND MORE, from every next generation".  Think about that as they tell you what great things "your scientists/ geneticists" are doing for you. one tiny mistake, and the body is worthless; mutilation is mutilation.  When did that ever "seem good".  evolution is just a damn disease, another religion of fools (they can't prove anything).
So then the question is literally WHAT are you or we entitled too/ for the sake of a future for life on this planet.  The answer would be:  you may take what you need, as we all must do/ BUT YOU may not take more than you need/ or simply throw away resources that are very much required by all of us.  Or more simply:  you cannot have ANYTHING, that cannot be sustained for the future/ you cannot DESTROY anything that will be necessary to life in the future/ you cannot TAKE more than is fair to the future/ you certainly CANNOT mutilate life/ gamble with the entire planet, or assume you have no responsibility to those who follow.  Or    you DO assassinate life on earth!  It’s a  choice.

          There are foundations in society with regards to how we interact with each other:  either with kindness and friendship/ or suspicion, fear, and threat.  That too is a choice.  The choice to live with kindness and friendship stems directly from the decision to understand we all have similar needs, wants, and realities of life.  We are all “given what we are given in birth and environment” (not a choice)/  we all endure, because we must or die.  Therefrom the variance in what seems fair changes from one person to another/ the reality of justice is assessed differently from one person to another/ the body we live, the mind we use, the time we have for each other are all governed by outside forces, but declared by inside beliefs.  Consequently it is the beliefs we accept as our own foundation for dealing with other people, that becomes our contribution to peace and harmony on this earth/ or not.   Bullying never goes away, because it is a decision of people to interfere and change someone else’s life;  as a demonstration of “my power”/ thereby it is the belief, “I can play god over you”;  I can choose what I want/ by making you do what I want; and do.  That applies to finding a job, keeping a job, sharing a job;  and everything else the interaction of people cause and do to personal existence outside the realm of true freedom.  True freedom affects only you adversely, or fundamentally as happiness.  Anything less is fundamentally a test of liberty;  what we have chosen for ourselves.  MANY bullies are bullied first.  Many people who are bullied become isolated and drained of the happiness life requires to survive/ the reality I can and will love, or accept you too.  It is a choice.  It is also a choice to fear anyone, to believe "the image" is the man or woman:  it is not. Belief is the assumption, “I have a right/ or I have an understanding/ or I don’t care about you, only me”.  Consequently all belief is born on the assertion:   I have made a decision.  Which then becomes “I have exposed myself” to a certain degree, to the reality of what that brings or denies.  The consequence of that is, someone sees and disagrees or agrees; and becomes "friend or enemy based upon belief's".  Which then challenges what is or is not important about what they believe/ becoming judgment.  And they judge you too.   The law is suppose to do that/ NOT you or a judge only the law.
Society at peace is reflected by people who allow the others to believe what they wish.  People who believe in the law, more than themselves.  Society at war or straining within itself, is known by people who do not allow others to believe what they wish, and measure each other, by images they create in their mind.  On a personal level;  So long as that belief is not “violent”/ it is simply your own decision.  It is your freedom to decide/ until it changes someone else’s life, or future; that becomes "playing god". The contributing picture of childhood bullying needs to be governed by the simple truth:   a child in need, must be transported to a school;  where they are accepted and will find friends, opportunity, and the possibilities of life by friendship (counseling is required/ because most who cannot find the ability to be accepted are abused).  A child that is involved as bullying others;  needs to be understood, and then, if necessary; moved to alternate schools as well.  A second eruption of bullying, and the school will be picked for you/ a third and the disciplines of a military school identified to you.  If a controversy exists:  the children get a vote/ the school teachers and staff get a vote/ and the parents get a vote; majority rules, in each category.
The opportunities of education are for you, the student/ not for parents or society;  these are your possibilities to learn, while you can.  Because life in society has needs that must be met, and it will soon consume your time and energy for life.  That means schooling, NOT your grade has value.  That means, the students themselves should define their interests, and teachers should be found accordingly:  start your future today, NOT "in college".  That is stupid.   A lesson means it is up to you to accept, take, and demand what is important to the world of work and life you wish to enter;  by listening, but also by finding your own interests and working for a future you desire.  That means it is the students who must grade the teachers, and hire or fire accordingly:  “its  their future”.  Life isn’t a book/ therefore reality is your best teacher;  NOT a diploma/ but an opportunity to learn the truth about life and work.  Life can be hard:   The lesson of youth is best given by watching a young tree;  if the wind blows hard/ bend, so you don’t break.
          EVERY form of work or life in society DOES represent a competition with the rest:  WHICH IS WHY, schooling today is so poor.  Your elders/ your leaders:  do not want competition for their job, as you do represent.  Therefore a decision that represents the test, “how do we get rid of these others ( by bullying)/ so as to take for ourselves what we want or expect from life”? Is common.  The reality however now is:  with 7 billion people on earth/ there is no such thing left, as limited competition.  With 2 million more mouths to feed each week on earth:  "they are coming".   Consequently there will be war, ending all life on earth/ OR WE MUST SHARE, thereby proving we care, more than compete with each other.  IT’S A CHOICE!  It is also a choice to prepare for these needs, as every child grows up and needs more or dies.  Nature needs our assistance TODAY, or we all fail together.
The reality of sharing, or more clearly limiting the competition so that all have an equal or realistic opportunity to survive and be happy:   requires, access to the possibilities.  Access to the possibility of anything requires, that others may not control this form of work or communication or transportation:  so that I too have a chance.  When there are many as is today;  the chance to limit war/ and declare the needs and reality of the rest (limited capitalism) shall be done.  is elemental to our survival.  What we do share as society, working for the benefit of each other, as well as ourselves;  determines our happiness as humanity itself.  Or more simply:  if we all want “a free ride on the bus”/ then we all contribute what is necessary to make that happen.  If we all want access to tools,  Then as groups which cannot exclude the rest/ we can join in an effort to provide.  As any society, WE ARE LIMITED in happiness ONLY, by those who steal, cheat, lie, fail to respect, or refuse to work.  These are choices applied by freedom, and created both by independent decision and foundations of society,  distinctly within their liberty to address.  The opportunity here is simple:  if you refuse to belong properly (no hate allowed, not more)/ then we will make you leave.
The elevation of manners, is necessary; knowing how best to get along in society removes ridicule and increases happiness because we know, "its not me".  The end of fear and insanity as is believing hate cannot be left alone; these are the predators among us.  That fundamentally assesses the truth we do have a choice/ because hate is definable and people prove with evidence, their decision to join.  Separation of the base levels of humanity into those whose direction is love/ versus those whose direction is hate:  ends strife and determines the future for peace, or death.  The people of the middle must choose, and then live their choice.
Those who hate, will prove, they CANNOT live together/ so they choose war.  By Limiting "a war with us" that possibility: controls their future, to war among themselves.  More simply:  we control our future by designing our own decision of how we will interact with each other.  By either giving the right to be equal (not same, apart from life itself), but equal, you cannot simply exclude me.  Unless it is proven, that your hate intends to do us harm regardless of the dignity and respect you are allowed to share.  These do not belong.  Life is not a game.  Arrogance is not a virtue, it is failure and a disease.
