Well opportunities multiply as they are seized, which can either be a blessing or a curse. In the end, it's how much molecules you managed to move during your lifetime here, in this place, this dream. Personally I try not to move that many molecules or 'make a dent' because there are other, much more capable and better positioned people to do that for me.

Now the question becomes: are those impactful actions benevolent moving of molecules or malevolent? Generally I'm seeing it as malevolent with things like climate change and dropping bombs on innocent people who become another statistic or 'collateral damage'.

Yes there is a lot of good in the world, and I probably have 'mean world syndrome'[0], but when you're exposed to the news more than ever now via the Internet, you can't help but think we're living in a very divided and malicious world.
