There are all of these goals that we're trying to achieve; becoming a more equal society, stopping environmental destruction, achieving world peace, and a lot of other things. What I wonder is what we'll do once we've achieved those goals. Saving our environment is lovely, but what if we could undo the damage, or even build something better? Will equality be all that we need to make sure everyone feels valuable? What if we peace is impossible? I've heard it said that we, as a species, can't think very far ahead. What if it turns out that, without new goals to work towards, we start unraveling the old ones just to give ourselves something to do?
