RE: The income of irrelevancy

I think people identify themselves far too often with random events and the opinions of others. It is all well and good to do what you want and live for yourself, but that is not the case when one is triggered by a million external actions from strangers.

Yes, people need to at the very least feel like they have an impact on the direction of their lives, yet time and time again, when given the chance to take responsibility - we outsource it to authorities - platforms, corporations, governments, gods.
