Wakeup call

Society is not decaying but instead undergoing a massive metamorphosis. When a previous structure is dismantled, something needs to be slowly put in its place which is why we are seeing so much tumult. Certainly the post pandemic world is far different and there are more people than ever wandering the streets talking to themselves. It appears that much hope is gone and succumbed to a resigned pessimism where even normally ebullient Americans understand that their country is in crisis.

I fight my own cynicism but within the understanding that history experiences a cyclical arc and all is remade again but still somehow recognizable. However, anyone who thinks we are going back to a carefree and materialistic ambiance like the end of the 20th century, is in for a rude wakeup call.
