I spoke once to someone who was born in the 1920s in Scotland. He said, life used to be simpler, but harder. There were fewer choices for you, and many of those led to a hard life. But now, he said, life is easier and a lot more complicated. Now today, I think it is super-easy for many of us, but in terms of choices, completely chaotic.
Yes. Sounds about right. We’ve eliminated a lot of friction from our lives and now can’t quite deal with The Unbearable Lightness of Being. Problems that are like smoke, are not an easy opponent.
I want to make tea for you. Boss, subordinate.
How about a video with a friend? ?
Tea sounds good! Ha
Haha. Shitty boss.

You’ve touched on something quite profound with your writing and the three videos linked here.
The links to buildingmeaning.org in the “exit the void” video no longer connect to a working site.
Besides writing “HI!!” also deep gratitude!!
