A world perspective
T.P.Jackstraw  Updated: 2004-02-01 20:48

It seems to me that China's current leadership has demonstrated the wisdom from its perspective of having to face a very complex world, throughout all of its existence. Though only a bit over 50 years, it is a very fresh and current perspective, and more worldly neutral, in origin.

Territory has been the world game, whatever the reasons. China's leadership has rightfully negotiated its position (by easy argument), whether at the table, or in the field. China is not a threat to the current territorialists, except perhaps, by cultural export and assimilation.

World leadership is in great need of a newer perspective. The world needs China's voice!

As the world becomes smaller, neighbors become closer and their technology more obtrusive and obnoxious. One significant gift of the Chinese culture, perhaps, is its more mature social perspective!

If China's leadership is allowed the opportunity to express the true will of its people, then China's calming and caring voice can help to save our world!

These can be some of the clear and obvious gifts of the Chinese people and their culture!

The current leadership has available to it, the relatively new ability to learn and experience the governing systems of its territories. The interface of the two might need some adjusting, and that should come with time. Time, perhaps, for a unique and innovative system that more suitably reflects the Chinese nature!

Refinement, a more developed infrastructure, improved checks and balances, etc --now; all that seems to be required, is time; Time and Stability!

Am I the only one that sees that China's direction and effort are on a true bearing? I am concerned with any external efforts that threaten to either steal or deflect any energy from this current course!

More than ever, the world is in need of balance. Time is of the essence, we should hope that efforts aren't wasted!

The world needs to become stabilized as quickly as possible -- everyone calm down! We have very urgent and serious tasks, that we can only master together!

We have no time to fiddle around, bickering over so many pointless minor nuances such as our past, our pride, and our differences. We are all brothers and sisters; we are all human beings.

We are in debt to each other, as we have the responsibility to honor ourselves as human beings and take care of each other and our world. Least, God rescinds the gift!

Peace, prosperity and happiness for us all,

Thos. P. Jackstraw (aka eightyeight)
