It feels like everything, everything, that is happening in this modern world is driving towards one particular vision of the future. Not a good future in my opinion.
What would it feel like if it were a different indefinable feeling of what the future holds on the cards? Obviously hard to imagine.
All that told there is a glimmer of hope. I find it incredible that, as far as we know, a viable alternative exists, a life raft, as without it I believe it really would be a pretty depressing state of affairs.
