Where Are We Going?

It's critical that we face and respond to the overwhelming and very real global crises that threaten our collective survival. But to me it's equally critical that we ask, "Where are we going?" Once all of our survival needs have been met, what's the purpose, if there is any, of the human experience? That's what I believe more of us need to be concerned about. What's the next step for you and me at the level of shared meaning and purpose? Who are we, why are we here, and most importantly, how should we make deeper sense out of the experience we're having right now and will be having five, ten, or twenty years from now?
