I am a man out of time. The world I am meant to live in has not yet arrived. It is, however, drawing closer. The world I am waiting for has technology even more magnificent than what we now see, and it is caught in the grip of chaos so extreme that the institutions which govern our world are crumbling away one by one. Governments, cultures, economies, laws, traditions, rules, nations, cities - all are crashing down, collapsing in the face of endemic warfare, civil strife, natural calamity, starvation, economic collapse, resource shortages, etc.
It is the good side of this future that I look forward to - that is, the freedom that will arise as the old institutions disappear. Freedom to live in new, better ways, to form new societies, new economies, new technologies, freedom from the restriction of archaic, burdensome, ineffective rules that no longer benefit people in any significant ways. Somehow, when this world arrives, I'm going to be right there in the middle of it, thriving, helping to set up new systems & identifying solutions to the problems we face.
Can't wait!
