Wow some of the replies are surprising.
I appreciate the "advice" but was merely venting about life in general etc.
As for the days of old comment. I guess one might argue that life was about survival in the truest forms. Sure we have made leaps and bounds medically and live longer but at what cost. Think of it this way, were those folks worried about economic collapse ? were they worried about having a job ? In the modern world the lives of many tend to revolve around commercialism, there is no need to hunt, fish, sculpt, others do it for you. I guess it comes down to the "Ignorance is bliss" idea. The more we know about our world, the more interconnected we all are, the more bullshit we have to deal with, the more things we all worry about etc etc
Either way life goes on. Hopefully I will be able to live out my dream of having a house on 100+ acres no neighbors etc etc.
