So there probably should come a time when Ripple starts getting what we want done done in surprising ways whose details might involve obscure links between people none of whose direct trust line partners we even know or even know of.
s/Ripple/Facebook and you'll see that what you wrote is rampant digital utopianism.[...SNIP...]
Yes, very important points, had to be said, glad someone did, saved the rest of us a whole bunch of keystrokes!
Heaven and Hell are both places you can live in, interchangeably, right where you are right now, psychologically. You can go back and forth.
That won't change your real situation, you are unlkely to shift between quantum realities with different timelines or whatever the just will it and it will happen crowd are saying in their be a millionaire just by believing you are ebooks (only $99.99, pay now with irreversible new ecurrency!) but the freedom you do have just inside your own mind and feelings about your situation is awesomely massive.
But can therefore allow one to be "manic", wonderfully happy, even in some gosh-awful situations.
Which can be really good for survival once you are in such situations (you can still live a happy life even after you abandon your facebook account with no way to undo what you already did by giving them information).
But can lead you into some gosh-awful situations if used up front, that is, feeling all manic / happy about a situation YOU ARE NOT YET IN!
Live happily with how much information you've already spewed out onto the internet, but
BE CAREFUL WHAT MORE YOU PUT OUT THERE!!!
