Maybe... You can see that some people have some sort of harmony going on, where it seems like the world rewards their endeavors more than it does for others (me included). The world organizes around these people, like iron filings around a magnet. Is it merely talent? Is talent a conversation with some spiritual element? Idk.

it is not always this way, but if you read the writings of Chuang Tzu, during the time he was inspired to create the system of Taoism (he's a documentary-proven person, a contemporary of Confucious, unlike Lao Tzu) he even talks about how when those in charge are evil that goodness struggles

anyway, do we really want extravagance and luxury and power? nope, just would like peace please, and bad guys to actually get put in their place, which is small and uncomfortable and dark
