Our Greatest Accomplishment

Since the dawn of civilization…since we humans were begun look at all we have accomplished…look at all the things we've done. When you stop to think about it…our accomplishments are grand… We built boats to take us across the waters… and cars so we can drive across the land. We've learned to harness the wind and sun… to glide high in a balloon…. We've sent rockets to the stars. We landed people on the moon. We learned how to use electricity and fire to provide us with warmth and light. We built houses with indoor plumbing… We taught ourselves to read and write. When you look at all we've accomplished… and how every day we add something new It makes one stop and wonder… is there anythings we human's can't do? But there is a downside to our creativity…if you're keeping score… We've also created different ways to kill each other…. In our hate…we're created guns and bombs…and war. Oh, how I wish we humans would combine our expertise… Would put our collective minds together and find a way to create peace. Creating peace, I believe, would be our greatest accomplishment of all… And…until we do all our other achievements will seem meager, insignificant… and small.
