One of the greatest tragedies and incongruities of the human spirit in modernity of present time is the lack of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding in the decision making processes of many people. The unchecked and unbalanced emotion that leads these processes in the lives of an untold myriad of people is both disturbing and alarming. I learned many years ago that ignorance and unbridled emotion is the deadliest amalgamation known to mankind when it comes to decision making processes that effect leaderships, partnerships, relationships, futures and dreams building, business, politics, spiritual foundations, marriages, and a plethora of other key areas that serve as foundational realities in our lives. The greatest consequence of leading our decision making processes through the deadly amalgamation of ignorance and unbridled emotion is a deep spiritual and pragmatic suffering that defies human comprehension and purpose. This deep suffering has no answer as to why an individual can go an entire life time where every personal relationship they entertain ends up tainted. No answer as to why there are so many one parent and even parent less homes that should (in proper context) be two parent homes that serve as the foundations for potential future leadership candidates across all genres of purpose and calling. No answer as to why more ominously there are many individuals that possess great potentialities in life however, very few are ever actualized especially in the realm of realized dreams. We must come to a critical realization that to gain wisdom, knowledge, and understanding for the purposes of being led in our decision making processes is of crucial and life changing importance and will avoid the kind of deep suffering that all too often plagues modernity to ungodly proportions.
