IMO, one of the saddest things in society is how few people actually achieve their “dreams” in life. When I was growing up–that was a major topic of conversation–now, it seems to be more about “survival.” Personally, I can’t imagine that scenario for myself or for my family.

Since it’s difficult to make generalizations about any of these type of topics, again, IMO, it all boils down to what works for each of us and our families–as long as our “beliefs”–whatever they may be–aren’t harming others.

No one has absolute answers, but one thing is certain. Life on earth is
short–regardless of what you “believe.”
