I'll love them as long as someone is still making scrumpy in 50 years!
Another thought that popped into my head the other day when watching a documentary was about war. A conclusion that I'd rather fight with a coward by my side than a pacifist since only one of them has any use on a battlefield, yet the bravest one of the 3 in that hypothetical definitely wasn't me. Pacifists are dangerous, best to shoot them on sight... I kid.
I can sense the changes and I do hope it's just a bit dark before the dawn. I'm far from clued up when it comes to Hinduism and all the associated stories although I do see the sense of repetitiveness in other stories. Dualities being broken by something new is a huge theme and so is hero worship.
I haven't been around that long but I see the world changing and it hasn't necessarily been for the worse either, I just often find myself questioning the motivations rather than the works themselves. Usually people moaning on and on for centuries or violent revolution gets things done.
There's a sense of urgency too, it might be worth asking if we have time for all that. I s'pose it is despair but it's more palpable than anything.
It's a funny ol' world, emancipation at our fingertips and we've never had it so good technically. I am hopeful, 5% can grow fast even if it's one person at a time.
