Next I want to discuss a dilemma with you. The dilemma is this: of course we all hope — especially if you and I live in the same field, the same society — we want this village, this society, to thrive. That is probably not hard to grasp, because everyone more or less lives in the same place, shares beliefs, even the same rhythm of life — spring, summer, autumn, winter, the same warmth and cold — so people should be able to care about the same place.
