Benefiting During Times of Disruption

Personally I’ve never thought the leftist ideal of working toward utopia was a good idea. The road to hell, we know, is paved with good intentions, and pretty much every socialist attempt to force or impose a “better world” on the one we have now has ended in creating more suffering than anything else. I place my bets on the individual. Any real change has to start with you or me becoming more conscious, more awake, more alert, and getting a tighter grasp on reality. It’s depending on us. Times of disruption also bring opportunities. We need to be prepared for them. Fear and anxiety are everywhere, but we must have faith that the growth that results is desirable and to our benefit, as Dostoevsky once said.
