  • A white paper on the Future of the Care Economy called on leaders worldwide to prioritise the care sector. It shed light on the state of the care economy, emphasising its critical importance to economic growth and societal well-being. Focusing on overcoming systemic inequities and adapting to demographic changes, employment trends and skill requirements, the paper identified care as a key driver of prosperity. A proposed framework encouraged collaboration across sectors to enhance care systems, incorporating design principles and success factors for robust development and a more inclusive and prosperous future.

At least until the transhumanist dream becomes a reality, which according to one leading modern philosopher may be never, we will cling on to whatever we can that reminds us of our loved ones.

On Michel de Montaigne

Michel de Montaigne's Essais help us better frame and address the fundamental question: "how to live?"

"I have never seen a greater monster or miracle than myself", said Montaigne, describing his own poor memory, his ability to solve problems and mediate conflicts without truly getting emotionally involved, his disgust for man's pursuit of lasting fame, and his attempts to detach himself from worldly things to prepare for death.

On the Veil
Veil
Halcyon In Kal… 19 March 2024

 

I have always been attracted by the veil, by seeing through a glass, darkly:

 

And the children in the apple-tree

Not known, because not looked for

But heard, half heard, in the stillness

Between the two waves of the sea

- from Little Gidding, T.S. Eliot

 

When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now
