The world has always been going the shit and will continue to go to shit until the end of time. It takes mountains to influence the tides of nations. You should take the responsibilities you can bear, but no more.

    Enjoy your life and vote for the future you want. Can’t ask for much more from the average citizen.

      I live by the boyscouts rule. Leave this place a little cleaner than when you came here.

        Seriously. Some of the things that philosophy does is get you to focus on things that are local so you can see the change, and things you can do something about. Now the world is a better place because you looked at the places you were and did something that is possible for you to do. We should all do this

          It’s also a matter of making the right choices. At a small local level it’s easier to know what is right and what is wrong.

      The average citizen can do their best to be the best person they can be, to have clean healthy relationships with those around them.
