It's a GREAT time to be alive! We are witnessing 'history' first hand. Think about how many have come and gone who didn't get to see what's unfolding for us -- who didn't have the hope of seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, like we do. Besides, when would be better? Better to be a Christian being thrown to the lions in ancient Rome? Better to be living in a world dealing with the plague (the real plague) better to have to get up at night and go outside in the freezing weather to use the outhouse? It's definitely not perfect, but it's better than most any other time in history for so many reasons. Count your blessings and PRAY. God would love to hear from you, I'm sure. All the best to you.
Of course! I care about you and we have to stick together and watch out for each other, right? And for me, my faith helps sustain me. Often I have thought about people who don't have that and how difficult their lives must be. Don't know where you stand on that issue, but I know from personal experience that God is real, He loves you and you can reach out to Him any time. Say a little prayer along these lines, "God, I don't know if you exist. But if you do, I want to know You. I want to know the truth. Please reveal Yourself to me." Just be completely sincere when you pray. Be humble. No mocking. Just say that little prayer and then let God do His stuff. :D You too can have confidence that in the end, it all works out and God wins. God = the ultimate red pill.
I'm sure most here will be aware of Plato's allegory of the cave of which this image references but those who would like to understand it's meaning you can view this excellently made short animation.
Great video and analogy. The media has been brain washing the masses for far too long. It’s been expedited since Edward Barneys’ time and it needs to stop.
I'm the bottom Truth Seeker that knows that everything behind me is bullshit, but also cannot climb out of the damn cave no matter what I do.
People tell me it is all wonderful up there but I'm not reaching it.
And there are lots of creepy assholes greasing the walls and telling me shit that sounds good but is actually misinformation.
It isn't a good time to be alive.

The fact that you put so much effort in to boost me up means something. Thanks, fren.

Keep pushing forward patriot. You are not alone. We will see brighter days, I'm sure of it.
