6/ It's very hard to think at scales of time and space different than ours. It's very easy to forget what happened some years ago. It's easy to forget about the predicted future that probably awaits us. We are perpetually lost in our brief now.

7/ The crystallization of selfishness as virtue in the US atrophied our collective ability to see the past and imagine the future. Worse, the Red Queen race of "more for me" has left us all so exhausted. It's difficult to even muster the energy to care about anything but now.

8/ The result is corrosion. Without history, we repeat our mistakes. Without imagination, we fail to avoid predictable ones. Society becomes a rudderless, reactive mess that abides by the intractable rules of recency. That's where we've been and still are.

9/ Unless we learn to see again, that's where we'll end. Stars are born. Then, they die. People are born. Then they die. Civilizations have a beginning and an end. We can't change that. But, we can adapt. And, that requires remembering what was and dreaming of what can be.
