The trees do not discriminate who breathes the oxygen they give out. Their oxygen is for global well being. However, to be able to give out the oxygen, they must exist and they must stay healthy.
So what is the difference between man and the tree. For one, Trees can not become LEADERS. Man can.
President Obama is in Ghana. He has been to Egypt and I am sure he will visit other nations. He made a statement that I heard on NPR that Governance and Prosperity are related. I say that GOOD GUIDING PRINCIPLE AND GOVENRANCE ARE RELATED. What is an appropriate guiding principle. This President and Presidents before have talked about freedom, democracy and human rights and still are not able to clearly communicate what the guiding principle should be for governance.
In the world of word smithing and word manipulations....a right word is important. Time has come when global well being is possible. There is prosperity around and is being shared and propogated (to an extent). In order to become a true global leader you ought to be a strong regional or national leader. To bring about well being to the globe you must be well yourself similar to the tree that gives out oxygen that is for global well being. It must exist and it must stay healthy.
Time for thinking about Global well being by our Leader is now. Let there be emergence of one or many such Global leaders.
