We’ve built a world that feeds on its own restlessness — economies of distraction, politics of belonging, technologies that promise completion but never deliver. Our hunger was meant to lead us inward, yet we’ve turned it into a global enterprise. Until we see that, the world will keep mistaking appetite for purpose, and noise for meaning.
