Intelligence and goodwill

According to Aldous Huxley, there are two significant things in men’s life which are intelligence and goodwill. These are important to maintenance a relationship with others. Huxley's opinion about the intelligence and knowledge is surely true. Because of knowledge, we can make the best for our life. We do not know how to build a machine before, but knowledge make it happen. Before the industrialization, we used to have home productions which only make small profits and benefits. After the industrialization, there are mass productions where new jobs are created and we can improve our life and satisfy most of our needs.

Huxley’s opinion about the goodwill can create some kind of prejudices in question. Why goodwill can cause such a thing? Goodwill is helping others to reduce their burdens and making a progress to the next step. For example, the tsunami disaster in Indonesia South East Asia on December 2005 that needed help. When the whole world helped the tsunami's victims; did they help them or create a prejudice? If we follow up with the update, we know those aids really important to survive. Those people are losing their home and family, and they do not have any hope to live longer. The whole world helps are their light in the darkness. We may not able to solve the whole world problem, but at least, we cans lower the progress. If one hand can help 10 people, we have created 10new life and hope. If that 10 people help another 100 people, 100people create another new life and hope. What will happen when people stop helping others? It is the end of the world.
