I sort of agree, but I do think we all will be held down by our limited perception of reality. One human can only know so much. We will always be faced with the delema that we are singular, mortal beings with our own twisted and narrow perspective on the universe. In that sense we are held back by our limitations. However, by learning from eachother and our ancestors we can become so much more as a species. If everybody in the world devoted half their time to helping everybody else in the world, instead of concentrating on their own selves, the world would be made such a better place. A single perspective on the universe is like a grain of sand in the ocean. The grain of sand will experience so much, going across vast areas of ocean and land. But it alone doesn't matter, it alone doesn't make a beach, or a sand castle, or a sea floor. You can't tell anything about the ocean just by looking at one grain of sand. But when all those grains of sand are put together, you get a beutiful feat of nature.
