What Matters Most Conversations

People ask me about my Social Entrepreneur Activism and what that has to do with a WholeHealth Wealth Worldview or what this has to do with my WholeHealth Wealth Innovative Incubator Worldview.  So, first let’s look at some Reality:
1.      In the United States we have a 23.1% Child Poverty rate that among other developed World Nations is only 2nd to Romania.
2.      In the United States we have the (Highest) Incarceration rate in the world and we have the (Highest) Incarceration rate of any nation in history.
3.      In the United States 46 MILLION PEPLE live in poverty.
4.      Globally (17K Children) will die of starvation.  EVERY 4 SECONDS a CHILD will starve to death on this planet.
5.      Globally 1 BILLION PEOPLE live on less than $1.25 a day and another 1 BILLION PEOPLE live on less than $2.00 a day.
I could continue, but I’m going to stop here and say, this alone should be sufficient for any sentient being to conclude 'Enough is Enough'.  This should be sufficient to keep not just Mothers but Fathers and the entire Human Species up nights because Social Intelligence tells us, if we think we can continue with:
·        The chasm between the haves and have not, rich and poor in this country and around the world,
·        Declaring War anywhere, anytime, and causing deeper wounding, death and destruction, verses healing,
·        Showing no reverence to this planet consistently,
·        Living with a lack of Brotherly and Sisterly love/ balance at the center of human civilization,
·        Saying one thing in our Constitution, Contracts and doing the opposite routinely without consequences
that would  not just be naïve folks, but a Multiple Diagnosis of Mental Illness, Addiction, lethal levels of both Heart Disease and Cancer.  Given the current conundrums, this culture will not survive another century without systemic shifts.  We are severely fragmented, only seeing parts not the whole or big picture.  Therefore, in my worldview, this is the problem and the solution is to raise consciousness to a higher levels of complexity theory, systems strategies, then get that contemplation in action for real change.
