It's irrecoverable.
You have no idea if you're going to have any sort of future whatsoever, even 10 minutes from now.
So what is it like to be alive now and now and now?
That's all you ever get.
And for me, the point how I answered that question was like to be alive now is.
I need to be with people I love.
I need to be with my family.
That's the point of the whole damn thing, right?
And when you get distracted from that truth is when, in my opinion, at least for me, life starts to seem tedious and puzzling and maybe not quite worth the effort.
We survive as nations, right?
Modern society survives as nations.
And nations come with laws that protect everybody.
And they insist on decency by their leaders.
And we have forgotten.
I think that Western society has a little bit forgotten those truths.
And I think what we're not talking about is how we can function in a healthy way as a nation.
America is not doing so right now.
And that is not a political conversation, right?
That's not a left versus right.
That's a conversation about human dignity and democracy.
