Is our world today a happy place?
Thinking specifically of our urban world - it's the inherent loneliness and helplessness in us that leaves us with despair and pain. And it's this loneliness, insecurity, and despair that brings people to drugs, self destruction, depression, and crime. Incest. Domestic violence. Rape. Murder. Thoughtless shooting down of classmates. Throwing acid at the girl next door.
Rage.
More than poverty or hunger, I think it's these psychological disturbances are a scarier root to crime today, and in the future. Terrifying.
Can we look out at our world and say, Ah, here's a happy place?
And how can we set it right?

It ain't a happy place for sure, but it's better to focus on the good things. There is so much in one's life that they are not bothered about things going around them,and probably quite rightly so.
