Our evolutionary process

It is abundantly clear that value creation, building, and integrated thinking is how we are meant to live and meant to be. There are certain of these qualities that we inherently have as we come into this life. Why is it, then that we don’t have those qualities throughout life? Why is it that we, as a society have this cloud of illusion from which we must rise in order to experience our true nature? Is that part of the design? Is the struggle through the illusion part of the purpose of our evolution being fulfilled? or is it an unfortunate accident – an evil design on our innocence to which we succumbed? It seems evident that our beings came about as part of the creative process of those who had progressed to a higher level before us. In their evolutionary process did they have the same kinds of illusionary thinking they needed to awaken from. In other words, are we following an intended path here, or are we correcting a mistake – a diversionary path that we took? Is this line of questioning even pertinent? I do realize that it is the wakening, itself that is of the utmost importance.
