Great writing. Somewhat on the pessimistic side, though I fully understand where you're coming from. The world has been in much a chaotic state - however I think we may be at a turning point, as there are some major shifts in consciousness underway that are being reflected in the outer world. Especially with all the technological developments - including blockchain and systems/platforms/applications being tested like Steemit - we've got a lot of opportunities to create new systems that work harmoniously and effectively as constructive, sustainable means to ends that work for all. Of course, chaos is also a part of life, and sometimes we need the dark nights of the soul to discover the light - though it seems overall, things are taking a turn for the better and we can look forward to brighter times ahead, thanks to the commitment of those passionate about sharing the light with the world (which you appear to have multiple creative gifts to do, and can now be even more effectively shared and rewarded through tools such as Steemit).

Keep up the good shares... :-)
