Alright, I’ll give it a go.
Capitalism doesn’t confer meaning into people’s lives. The standards of success in modern society are hallow and only feel good if you believe life itself starts and ends with your individual life. It doesn’t.
Humans will become migratory again, and it will feel good. Our sense of society will fall apart but the pain of that will be short lived. We are part of systems much larger than us and that’s good. We’ve forgotten how it feels to be fully alive. We’ve been side-tracked for a while. It’s been an experience but this experience has grown stale. Time to get back to our human lives. Our specialized jobs take us away from well balanced lives. To live and die is good. Have a meaningful life by living fully.
How’s that?
It’s very good.
