So, before we delve into empty promises of “we solemnly swear”, let's look at a few behavioural facts that has brought us to our current global dilemma and what needs to change in order to minimalise any similar future scenarios that threaten to mimic our current assimilated experience.
The question we should all be asking is: "Is the 'new normal' a place of creation or is it a place of incarceration?"
The choice remains in all of our hands. Either we choose to take action and stand together, with an attitude of unity and camaraderie, or we risk being driven to extinction by the greed and ego of a human race who are blind to our own power and who chooses an attitude of negligence.

And sometimes, getting those things means looking outside our genetic circles.
We don’t have to swear allegiance based solely on the blood running through our veins.
Sure, blood may be thicker than water, but water is equally necessary to sustain life.
For  whatever the reason that we can’t be with our blood-bound families of  origin, there’s so much to be said for choosing someone to stand in  their place. Emphasis on “choosing”, because unlike actual  family, we get to pick them:people who share similar views, people who  understand, people who accept, people who forgive, people who love.
This  “chosen family” is truly a gift from above and there’s a level of  comfort and familiarity that you just don’t achieve with regular  “acquaintances”.
These are the friendships and relationships that  are next-level, and on a personal level... I’m here for them, because  they’re here for me: the family I chose in the absence of my own.
Family is the best and most important gift in our lives, and it is important to embrace and appreciate it every day.

But nobody who says “I want a  family,” means “I want a group of genetically similar people.” They want an unbreakable bond of unconditional love and warmth. A soft place to go to when everything seems...They want an unbreakable bond of unconditional love and warmth. A soft place to go to when everything seems difficult.
And sometimes, getting those things means looking outside our genetic circles.
We don’t have to swear allegiance based solely on the blood running through our veins.
Sure, blood may be thicker than water, but water is equally necessary to sustain life.
For  whatever the reason that we can’t be with our blood-bound families of  origin, there’s so much to be said for choosing someone to stand in  their place. Emphasis on “choosing”, because unlike actual  family, we get to pick them:people who share similar views, people who  understand, people who accept, people who forgive, people who love.
This  “chosen family” is truly a gift from above and there’s a level of  comfort and familiarity that you just don’t achieve with regular  “acquaintances”.
These are the friendships and relationships that  are next-level, and on a personal level... I’m here for them, because  they’re here for me: the family I chose in the absence of my own.
Family is the best and most important gift in our lives, and it is important to embrace and appreciate it every day.

Some of those stories seem like the only explanation is pure magic or miraculous, instead of science.
Although it does seem inexplicable, scientists have been hard at work studying these cases over the last several decades, and have found the explanation behind the magic: Neuroplasticity
Neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to adapt.
Our brains are truly extraordinary; unlike computers, which are built to certain specifications and receive software updates periodically, our brains can actually receive hardware updates in addition to software updates.
Different pathways form and fall dormant, are created and are discarded, according to our experiences.
And with "experiences" I mean the demands we put on our brains.
When we learn something new, we create new connections between our neurons. We literally rewire our brains to adapt to new circumstances.
And even though this happens automatically and unconsciously on a daily basis, it’s also something that we can encourage and stimulate by conscious choice.

But here's the catch. "Common sense" is neither common nor sense. There's not a whole lot of sound judgment going on these days (though whether it is worse than in the past, I can't be sure), either way, it's not common.

If common sense was common, then most people wouldn't make the kinds of decisions they do every day, right?

So let's look at why common sense is not really so common after all...

We often wonder why we get so easily irritated, upset, sad, lethargic, and bored in life.
Then, as a solution, we try to improve our mood and cope with stress by engaging in unhealthy behaviours. And this, unfortunately, makes our mood even worse.
Yes, it’s true that our mood is affected by our brain chemistry. 
But, remember one thing...
Our brain chemistry is largely affected by our behaviours and habits in life. If we treat ourselves with care and know what makes us happy, we are going to have a more balanced brain chemistry.
Here are a few common bad mental health habits that might be making you unhappy and unsatisfied with your life.

When I was in high school, I remember thinking that I had to pick a career at which I would be “happy and successful at” for the next 50 or so years of my life. I mean, come on! A 16-year-old needing to face such a daunting task. How are you supposed to know what’s going to make you happy for the rest of your life, when you’re only 16 and you’re still getting a thrill out of watching “The Matrix”?
You can’t know!
You can’t even know what’s going to make you happy five years from now. But you can know what makes you happy RIGHT now. And if you’re in a situation where your current position — or choice of educational path — isn’t it, then you need to move on.
If what you’re doing is not working for you, then do something else. And if you’re uncertain about WHAT exactly to do, then just go and DO RANDOM stuff that you think might be interesting and if you didn’t like the class or workshop or course or whatever, then cross that off your list. See, life is often about experiencing things and realizing what you don’twant.

You've reached a point where you feel that nothing and no-one can dig you out of the perceived hell you find yourself in and you are imagining, or even worse, planning an exit strategy?

I get you! I was there as well a few years back. If there's one person who understands, it's me.

The thing is, nobody ever tells you how to deal with extreme failure in life. 
I had no idea what to do, where to go, or who to talk to.
My family didn’t even know that I needed help.

All I knew was that nobody was coming to my rescue. Nobody could pull me out of this predicament.
I had to do it myself.

It wasn’t until I narrowly escaped death that I started to wake up from the fog and realized that I had to take back my life. 
How did I do it?

By going through the following five steps...

Basically, the feeling of exclusion.
I’m sure we have all experienced the gnawing anxiety of FOMO as it ruins our once happy mood with envy, sadness and a sense of lack, right?
Comparison is the thief of joy and as we compare our lives to those on social media - even though we cannot be compared because our lives are so beautifully different - FOMO kills happiness.
So what can we do to overcome it?

Kindness, compassion, peace, trust, Gratitude and appreciations are all examples of emotions that stem from a frequency of love.
