Why Unhappiness is Killing Us

Society is projecting its deepest truth.

We can all see and feel how the political and social climate has been changing lately. Something we think is new and recent but has been slowly happening for many decades now.

Whether it has been planned or is just the natural course of humanity, I don’t know. But as an observer, I feel all the problems we are now facing are rooted in one thing: most of society is unhappy.
