If your soul wrote this in year 1200 or 2500, the core archetypal generation narratives would be remarkably similar.

It will all work in the end. I can see enough of it to be comfortable.

Our society will pivot hardest on the energy, solid waste, water treatment, food, and new coal (pyrolysis) sectors.

Thanks for that good synopsis. I recently listened to The Fourth Turning Is Here on Audible, and was amazed at how very consistent it was with what we have been seeing.

This is a very interesting post. I was looking on Amazon and noticed that the book "The Fourth Turning Is Here: What the Seasons of History Tell Us about How and When This Crisis Will End" by Neil Howe is on sale right now. Hardcover edition is $18.00 - 45% off the regular price.

Fascinating how the Fourth Turning theory aligns with the turbulence of our times. It really does feel like we’re in a period of accelerated change and upheaval. History gives us the patterns, but it’s up to us to shape the outcome.

Dear Mr. Corthell, I'm always amazed at the expanse and depth of your writing. Do you mind saying what your educational and professional background is?

Two years of Liberal Arts, no degree. Persistent and determined. I'm retired and promoting veganism is my passion.
