As someone who's studied history and the horrors of war, I know that such a path should only be chosen as a last resort. War destroys everything, but most especially the common people and the downtrodden. There are no winners but the rich and the politicians.
It's a mystery that we find ourselves in these trying times. I feel like there are evil forces at work that want to kill off a large swath of people in the world. Maybe that is due to the advances in AI and the belief that so many people will not be needed by the rich and powerful going forward into the future. It feels like at every turn, politicians are doing their best to divide people, whether the division is on lines of race, culture, sex, or age. The decisions being made are not for the good of society, but to enrich a small cohort of powerful people.
For me, I view us all as Humans. Our cultures give us a flair of flavor and different perspectives, but ultimately, we are humans. As a human, I want to see our species expand into the solar system and then the universe.
When I look at the decisions being made around the world, it seems like the people in power do not want that. Hopefully, I can bring some of this desire for a better future into my writings as my heroes struggle through the adversity in their lives and in the verses that they are playing.
Anyway, I wish the best for you and your families, and I thank you for your support, whether that's simply buying my books or supporting my family on Patreon.
Thank you, and happy New Year,
Jason
