The future is the sum of what we do now

The future of humanity is the sum of what we, collectively, do now, and now, and again now - until tomorrow becomes today.

At the individual level, the future is the sum not of our ambitions or wishes for tomorrow or next year.  The future is the sum of what we actually create each day with the resources at hand.

When it comes to choosing from among the resources at hand, who would intentionally make a future without a lot of love in it?  And there's a bonus: the cost of love - what we give up to create and nourish love - is fear, judgment, and self-righteousness, the reduction of which also fosters joy and peace.
