We are living in the greatest time period in history. People are richer, freer and (largely still) more at peace than ever before. There are exceptions to this as always (Ukraine, COVID, the fiat ponzi scheme), and engineering minds always focus on what is wrong (so they can fix what is wrong), but we all need to recalibrate our overall perspective from time to time.

The freedom and good lives we have now should not be taken for granted. Use your freedom now to maximize your circumstances. Things have been and can be much much worse, so appreciate the wonderful life you have. 🥂
