There are different regimes: crisis, and thriving. Your life will fall in and out of both regimes. The world falls in and out of both regimes. Sometimes your life and the world fall into the same regimes at the same time, sometimes they're at opposite regimes.
During a period of world thriving, it is the responsibility of thriving people to coordinate their energies toward a virtuous cycle of expanding prosperity for all. Higher order thinking and planning can occur.
During a period of crisis, it is the responsibility of thriving people to protect the most vulnerable in order to stave off a vicious circle. Higher thinking and coordination is no longer feasible and delays will lose time.
During personal crisis, your sole energies are to survive, regardless of whether the world is thriving or in crisis.
A really clear way to summarize the itch I was trying to scratch here. I’ve noticed lately that our (my) tendency is to squander our places of thriving on luxurious and apathetic lounging, when they are actually intended to be wells from which those struggling can draw. They are, after all, our responsibility.

Wow!!
Random question here, are those Israeli soldiers in the picture ?
It’s a stock photo from Unsplash but as a regular traveler to Israel, I can say definitely. That’s what caught my eye!
I actually just returned from a two year trip to Israel. I don’t why but I instinctively knew they were Israeli lol
