All The World's A Stage

" All the world is a stage." So wrote Shakespeare! What he meant to say is; " All the worlds a stage, and we are all, but, bit players."  Thespians on history's stage. Only a handful of individuals ever received top billing through-out history. Alexander The Great, Caesar, Jesus, Charlemagne, George Washington, and Napoleon to name a few all have influenced the course of history. This past 20th century had it's share of individuals who all claimed top billing on the worlds stage. Infamous or famous from Kaiser Wilhelm to Adolf Hitler, Lenin to Stalin, to Chamberlain to Churchill, to Wilson, FDR, to General Douglas McAuthur all had a dramatic affect on how humanity entered the 21st century.
 
Today's top billing on the worlds stage have all finished rehearsing their parts. The stage is set or is it? The uncertainty, the apprehension, and anxiety of people all over the world are a testament to the ongoing struggles of man between good and evil. The atrocities of the first decade of the 21 century just prove how evil certain individuals and organizations can be in inflecting such horrendous acts of pure hatred, violence, and destruction against their fellow man and nature.
 
Ever since the dawn of civilization certain individuals have always caused the reactions that shaped history by others. " An eye for an eye" rationale has perpetuated and penetrated almost every level and segment of societies through-out the course of history. This begetting violence that still continues today has to stop if humanity and our planet are to survive.
 
The key players on today's stage are already shaping the destines of tomorrow. The leaders of China, Russia, France, Great Britain, Germany, The United States, Canada, Australia, Japan, and Saudi Arabia all have an unique opportunity, and yes, an obligation to work in harmony in eradicating all the temptations that lead nations, organizations and individuals to inflict any act of horror, violence, or terrorism against others for their own personal gain. Mankind's hope resonates in today's leaders for their decisions will ultimately define humanities direction for decades to come.

 
Yes, there is hope for mankind's future because of the influences and occurrences that shaped our history can now be incorporated into the times of today. The valuable lessons that have been passed on teach us what worked and what needs to be modified so that the problems and crisis of today can be over come. What we all learn for history influences our decisions that each and every one of us must make on how to react and choose the best plan of direction we must take to ensure our future and to preserve our heritage.
