“Before the onset of contemporary globalization, when humanity lived in separate countries, it was like living on separate boats. The international order essentially needed rules to ensure that the 192 different countries (boats) did not collide with each other and instead tried to cooperate. Today, we no longer live on 192 different boats. Instead, we live on 192 cabins on the same boat. However, we have no captain or crew to take care of this boat. We would never sail out to sea without a captain or crew. Yet the world is sailing into the future by weakening the institutions of global governance precisely at the time when they need to be strengthened.”

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should –The Desiderata
