I think it happened in the first decade of the millennium, or maybe a bit before. Now we’re in decline (and I think more people feel that way too). Last 2-3 years it’s speeding up drastically.
It’s a beautiful hot summer day, things aren’t perfect. But I’m happy and at least three separate things touched me today so far. And the day is far from the end yet.
Pausing a video that shows a human talking at random will almost always result in some silly-looking expression. (likely with eyes half-closed).
- We are ALL guilty. Not equally, not directly, but there’s no one without guilt.
- It IS possible that viruses originate in laboratories and are released accidentally.
- There’s more than one reason for the inflation, but enormous govt spending on ‘fighting the pandemic’ is definitely one of the bigger ones.
- War in Ukraine would have ended earlier if the world wasn’t helping (with humanitarian aid, money ammo and weaponry).
- Religions are generally bad, but faith isn’t.
- Politicians don’t create any wealth, they merely distribute it while taking smaller or bigger cuts.
- If selling and drinking alcohol is legal, so should be selling and ingesting any other substance.
- There are crimes which should be punished with death globally.
- The death penalty shouldn’t be the maximum sentence, there should be more drastic options for exceptionally hideous crimes.
- Politicians of all kinds should be personally responsible for their actions.
- NFT is not better than the Ponzi scheme [aka financial pyramid] (maybe worse).
- There seem to be more people giving advice than taking them.

I really wish we had a second planet – so people who want to fight each other could stay here and ones who would like to live in peace and harmony could go to.
It doesn’t follow the same rules as the regular one. Usually – on the contrary. You can share hope (or fear) it’s possible that you won’t lose any and someone would get more than you have.
As much as rationality, intelligence, wisdom, knowledge is the engine of life. Love, hope, and faith are the fuel of that engine.
