As THX1138, or my real name, Rick, I encourage anyone I care about to leave the system. I have found that belief in the system holds people in jeopardy, and has a literal death grip on so many people who are not aware. It makes me sad, and I try, as gently as possible now, to get people to leave it and become self-sufficient and self-aware and creative people again, while still working on myself. It’s a never-ending quest, and the windmills tilt back at me. Maybe I should adopt another fictional character’s moniker, Don Quixote?
