Volatility

As an intuitive and even just as an observer of the news I have never seen the level of volatility that is growing worldwide. And unfortunately, the anger appears to just be growing about almost all aspects of life on earth.

There was a saying that was normal when I grew up, "If you can't say something good don't say anything at all." Though many people would consider this saying laughable today there was a reason for it. The reason is that when people are going through really hard times it becomes necessary for people not just to go off and explode over the next ridiculous thing the next person says or writes. I think unfortunately we are entering a time on earth where things are just so bad so many places that it might just to be better to do whatever you can and talk less about stuff. However, I don't think this is going to happen and people are just going to have to cope with things the way the are one way or the other.

There are real problems and there are perceived problems and they are not always the same. Maybe we have to go back to how our ancestors dealt with it, which was, "Do I have enough food, shelter and clothes to survive for now?" If the answer was 'yes' you lived and if you didn't you starved and died. Unfortunately, de facto we may be moving in this direction once again where people take care of themselves but that's about it. Though we may not want to watch the outcome on television this appears to be what is happening more and more worldwide through this deleveraging process internationally worldwide. Good Luck to all of us.
