The system has values that aren’t very fulfilling (wealth, power, consumerism). I think a lot of people feel like you do.

No advice really. It’s totally true. You are on the one hand a dynamic individual with much to offer the world. Yet at the same time you are one of six billion, floating on a spec of dust in one corner of an infinite universe. Somewhere in the middle is the fulfillment your looking for. ;)

Funny you say that, I'm actually very much into this train of thought right now. I see the unity in the duality. The Tao instead of yin-yang. The balance of feminine and masculine in each of us. Ancient and modern. Eastern and Western. Red and blue. Capitalism and socialism. APOLLO AND DIONYSUS!

One thing I am looking for is more people on this train of thought. Where could I meet them?

Lol. I find many of them work in tech in New York and San Francisco.

Go to burning man and see if that’s your tribe.
