"The future, which distinctly though barely missing, is going to be brighter than the present."

This one hit pretty hard. I am not a cancer patient who is missing a life saving treatment by 10 years, but it does feel like we are living in a sort of liminal space between religion and technology. Sure we have iphones and Netflix but we all still work 40-50 hour weeks. ChatGPT seems nifty but if I break my arm they will just throw a cast on it and tell me to wait it out.
