It is fascinating that although we all change history on a continual basis, we all changed the world on a continual basis and we have the opportunity to be God like on a continual basis and yet we are not aware of it and we do not appreciate it and we do not view our creations or our changes as being things of beauty. Could it be that the reason for this is there is no positive tent associated with these creations from changes. So one of the solutions would be that everything we do be done with foresight with thoughtfulness and tent to create a positive result and/or a beautiful result. The only requirement is forethought.

In the book

Goethe called this life the childhood of our immortality; what you do in the childhood is what grows up and walks on without you. We change the world, all of us, continually and without noticing — which makes us almost God-like in our small way — and the one thing required to make those changes beautiful is forethought, doing what we do on purpose and aiming at a good result. I have written you little about your relationship with God, only because I never counted myself the expert there; but if you keep nothing else of mine on the matter, keep the verse — in all your ways, know Him. — Legacy / The Logbook (Legacy/Epilogue)
