Do You Have Foundation Problems?


Definition of the word, foundation (English/Oxford Dictionary):

The lowest load bearing part of a building, typically below ground level
an underlying basis or principle
a justification or reason.

A foundation is crucial to many things:
a house needs a foundation to sit upon
the basis of thought and belief systems must have a foundation in order for you to have faith
your life must have a foundation (purpose) in order for you to move forward
the law must have a foundation (in truth) in order to be fair and balanced
without a healthy and just foundation morality withers away and dies
without a foundation, humanity continues its descent into darkness (ignorance)

Whether you call your apt. or your house a home, it is much more than that.  It comes with four walls and a roof in which it shelters you as you eat and play, sleep, meditate, pray, make plans, entertain friends, welcome family members, communicate, have sex and raise your kids.   Its foundation enables you to live in security as you grow.  

What you personally believe is based on historical documents, people and events.  These beliefs (foundation) help to shape you, inspire you, motivate you and mold you into who you are.


In order for our lives to be more meaningful, we must decide who we want to be and what we want to do.  This is called purpose.

The law must have, as its underlying foundation, a basis in equity and truth.  It must strive to hear all sides of an argument, present the required evidence in order to render a just verdict.

Those among us who aspire to help others must have a moral and just society (foundation) in which to flourish.

Humanity's crumbling foundation is one of continued ignorance as it agonizingly searches for wisdom.  In order for it to evolve in the light it needs to improve its standards, eagerly search out those who are here to help others and encourage, cultivate and mentor them in their quest to make this world a better place for all.  This, my friends, is one of the greatest foundations of all.  It is called Selflessness.
