"I don't know what can be done about it... because if I was to learn from International Relations... then there is not answer. I guess the best way to survive, prosper and be well is to learn to recognize other's worlds and learn what the shared meanings are. Challenge the system only when it is worth it, learn to adapt at other times (how we do it is another question)." quote Venus

Yes, I would say that this is a good way to proceed. I believe it is safe to say that for thousands of years human beings have experienced psychological issues and challenges. I would add that human beings are designed to ask questions, continuously learn and search for meaning and ways to survive and thrive. I would also say that it is human nature to desire a sense of structure and feeling of safety within that structure in which they can adapt and survive. I can also say that throughout history human beings have been challenged in many ways, wether it be by nature or human nature.

While we were not designed to be an island and so form groups to ensure our own existance, developing skills to cope within these groups can present a constant challenge. History has proven that we are always creating new ways to live in groups and become more organized, civilized and continue to thrive.

Because life itself can present so many obstacles we have constantly sought ways to relieve our human incapacities to understand the meaning of the whole by seeking a overall faith that resembles something that is higher, or greater than ourselves.

As each of us are only merely human beings it is important to find our individual balance so we, ourselves can practice our given right by shear existance, to thrive and survive.

And as we make a conscious decision to take on this process that continues all our lives, we must find ways to respect that others deserve to do the same. As we become more and more knowledgable about the human brain and different ways the brain learns and percieves, even if it may contain a lack, we will begin to learn more about how to understand others, support others, and thrive more than ever before.
But this is going to take time to understand. Until then we all must do our best to continue to do our best to find our own personal balance and make efforts to allow others to do the same as long as it can be in a more peaceful manner.

Live your life Venus, do your best, learn what you can and realize that you are going to experience your own limitations, however, that doesn't mean you do not deserve to find balance and see if you can help others do the same.
