Underneath the collective consciousness lies a spirit of negativity. Because underneath the surface lie all of our doubts, insecurities, fears, and so on. Perhaps we could tackle these things on our own. However, the stranger phenomenon is how, as a culture, we handle these challenges. We all experience these things, yet we often struggle to be patient with them. Culture is, indeed, a strong force that. The message to me is unclear. Is it possible that we want people to suck it up and go to work? Or is it more likely, that we are all simultaneously thinking suck it up cause this situation sucks for everyone? Perhaps, neither are correct. But something has to be said of the hustle culture we have created. When everyone wants to be a millionaire instead of master the art of living, this is what we get. (Or worse, this is what we deserve.)
