The world is not a nicer place to live, and people are getting worse. There is so little compassion and grace in individuals, as they spend their energy maximising themselves at any cost, even if what they are getting in return for their effort, doesn't make them any better, and usually worse.
Uhm, well, all I will say is that I'm glad to see that somehow you are growing up. Maturing, we could say. And now that you are no longer an employee working for others and making rich to others. You finally have been able to change those rose-colored glasses with which you used to see things through previously.
