There are 500 million disabled, handicapped people on this planet, due to a variety of causes, mainly malnutrition in the poor countries and accidents in the rich countries. I consider it a scandal that a World Agency for the Disabled has not yet been established on this planet.
I recommend that a percentage of the reduction in military budgets be devoted to the creation of such an agency to help the handicapped and the prevention of disability, as one of our first and foremost priorities. Instead of building stockpiles of armaments it will be better to manufacture prostheses and facilities for the handicapped. Workers would certainly be happier to work for that instead of deadly, disabling weapons.

Volume III Chapter 5 Of Adulthood | |
Adulthood is also when we must begin to write down the wisdom of our life, our experiences, what we really believe, our enlightenments, our convictions, what we would advise, recommend to our descendants, our testimonies, nothing less than a testament to the miracle of life.
I try to do this in my Testament to the UN and Miracle, Joy and Art of Living which I began to write at the onset of my adulthood.
