[Serious] Are you worried about World War 3 happening? How do you cope with the fear?

Well.

So I've been pretty blessed in my life. I managed to be born in the most powerful country in the world, in one of it's best states, in a family that came from poverty but just happened to become affluent at the time of my birth.

I was given an excellent education, private school, university. As a child I never ever had to labor or stress, I was free to do as I wished. Now as an adult, I make excellent money and live a very comfortable life.

So if WW3 happens, if the world goes to shit, if everything bad comes to fruition...

I'll be as good a person as I always have been, and I'll remember how the universe gave me close to 30 years of enjoyable life.

As far as I'm concerned, there is always a balance anyway, how can I get away with such comfort. I like to think that because I'm terrible with women that the trade off is that I don't get to experience relationships, but really, that doesn't matter too much to me. So where's the balance? Why do I get to enjoy such a pristine life when so many millions and millions and millions live in piss and shit and suffer, and die?

Lately, I've been thinking about that a lot. I can't explain any of it. Any of the luck that I have had. So I just say to myself, "Be thankful for what you have, and be as good a person as you can be. Work hard."

That's all I can do.

Sorry, got off topic, I guess I am unafraid of the future because my past and present is and has been so nice.
