My question is, how did most of us have become "rabbits in the headlight"???
One of my answers, coming from the work I do, is overwhelm and burn out. I see more and more clients in sheer survival mode, looking after the most essential needs to feel secure, safe and centered.
Jobs are not longer as secure as before, too much change leaves change resistant people behind and rediculed; older employees are fired before their retirement age because they are too expensive - but they cannot find new jobs. The list goes on...
Too much discontent and painful unhappiness leads to freeze, to an uncomfortable pause, to inactivity.
It is not politicians who can lead us out of this misery. But they can be examples in resilience, inner power and strong morality. And they should be...
I chose to not give up and do my best to keep my small world intact.
Thank you Eduardo for your meaningful shares!!
It is important to stay informed AND to stay healthy....
Excellent analysis, my dear Bettina. If we keep our small worlds intact, the bigger world will be a better place! All the best for the four of you (soon to be five)!
Good article. So many arguments, and some I am in agreement with- like Churchill. Others, not at all. But again, I have changed too. Thanks for a very thoughtful article.
What will it take for people to wake up? To see the light? Please continue your good work; wish they were more individuals like you to share their knowledge and clear analysis of the world's politics. Short of a miracle, I fear for the future of my grand-children. To you and yours, Happy New Year and again thank you.
Discouraging times all over. I fear for Romanians and could weep for so many others. Yes, we need a Churchill; hopefully, a man/woman of his calibre will miraculously appear in 2025!

Many thanks Marie! I try. Maybe if more people tried we could get somewhere. Wish you and yours all the best for 2025!

I hope so!
